The New Delamores are from the outskirts of Leeds and Wakefield, though often described as 60’s influenced the songs have a darkness to them in both melody and lyric which make them anything but dated. On Tape the songs have a indulgent spectorish quality while live there is a stripped down aggression. Hear them featured on Louder Than Bombs, Children for Breakfast, Virgin Megastores and Murderous Traffic/Zavvi compilations (NME 8/10), or Ltd first DIY single “shoot me girl/round and round” (sold out), Murderous Traffic released single “Amanda/Jenny” and coming single "Love You Worse/72"



> Strummerville Joe strummer foundation for new music.

“Melodic, cool and of a standard that the vast majority of modern indie bands will never attain. ”



> Music Guru

“The Delamores are a high class scientific experiment: the essence of Americana has been amalgamated with the quintessential British-ness to form an entirely new sound that demands your total attention ”



> NME

“pretty brilliant. ”



> Murderous Traffic

“ Foot stomping, crowd surfer inducing, rock’ n’ roll at its bloody best!





> BBC.CO.UK

“an ability to inspire a true devotion in their fans. their big and skilfully controlled sound married both murky blues and sixties America, coupled with an innate ability for heads down rocking”



> Louder Than Bombs

“Forceful lyrics of skewiff, off-kilter love and shambles mingle with stop-start patterns hammered out of guitars and pelted out of larynxes, delivery to tease and coax your foot into tapping mildly, then stamping wildly, on the floor until you feel quite tempted to break into a flat-out barndance-meets-breakdance showcase ”



> Sandman

“a vitriolic attack on sense and sensibility.

Imagine if Brian Wilson joined The Sonics. It's remarkably polished, but without losing that raw exciting edge.”



> Yorkshire music collective

“an individual sound, very off kilter, but very listenable, charm and great sing-along potential. wonderfully crafted songs”



>RuhbarbBomb

These guys are the scene's best kept secret, straight up power pop love songs, golden-throated harmonies and taut musicianship born of authentic affection and untamed fire, images of Quentin Tarrantino idly picking the soundtrack to kill bill 3 appear



> Leeds Music Scene

“The Delamores’ vocalist Lee never breaks sweat. He is an enigmatic, quiet man,The Delamores are The Kinks if they had grown up listening to Hendrix and Nirvana. They are Bob Dylan’s former backers ’The Band’ with more balls, delivered through a powerhouse assault Lee’s vocals swell into a Frank Black wail and smother the venue in rock n roll. abrupt yet assured well-crafted songs change tempo and mood, falling and rising at every opportunity: the spasmodic rock out in the right place, the coolness of slower tracks. These aren’t poorly executed, scribbled tales of teenage passions down a back guinnel in Briggate; it is pure knuckle-crunching, ball-breaking "look me in the face and say that" confidence and talent that blows every Leeds band out of the picture. NME take note”
