THE GET-OUTS

About Me

The Get-Outs are a highly entertaining mod-punk 3-piece with a super-powered sound influenced by garage rock, mod, punk, surf and new wave all wrapped up in sugar-coated 3 minute pop song packaging.
Since formation in May '03 The Get-Outs have played 100+ gigs in and around their hometown of Bristol and have already attracted a large and loyal fanbase. Stand out gigs include the Bristol Community Festival, the International Pop Overthrow Festival at the Cavern in Liverpool, slots at the Hope and Anchor (Islington), Camden Barfly, The Dublin Castle and a very successful tour of Barcelona.
Their latest CD "Get The Message" includes thirteen great tracks including Enemy Inside, Drowning and Get with the now which have been played many times on local, commercial and college radio stations and is currently available on US label Avebury Records.Album Reviews
The Get-Outs are what I call a musical power plant. With their mixture out of Garage, Punk and Alternative The Get Outs know how to entertain the listener. Daredevil MagazineThe slight distortions in the sound give the songs an edgy feel, which fits right in with the “in your face” vocals. So don’t be fooled, despite the danceable quality of the songs, there is enough energy and attitude here to please even the odd Buzzcocks fan. Recommended! punkrockreviews.comWith The Get-Outs you get the added bonus of a quality mic-spitter with a Gaz Coombes-like yelp. They have a lot of the modern-day Undertones about them with their solid, yet vibrant, power-pop tunes. Refreshing stuff. Vanity Project FanzineThe Get-Outs are a fantastic power-pop trio from Bristol, U.K. GET THE MESSAGE is the bands debut full-length disc, and it is full to the rim with glam style and punk muscle. All 13 tracks are well-crafted songs that could all be hits. GET THE MESSAGE is a great, maybe monumental release and makes The Get-Outs a total band for rock's future. Skratch MagazineWhether biting guitars play in 70's harmony, like on "Start Shootin'", or punk vocals break into harmony, like "Enemy Inside", pop infuses the punk with gorgeous melody, like "With You", or heavy, fuzzed guitars lean toward grunge, like "Human Race," this crisp set will make you want to get up on your feet, hit the floor bouncing, and kick out the jams. toneandgroove.comWith songs like “Breakdown”; a catchy rhythm with a choppy guitar riff embossed over the top, and “Human Race”; an under two minute mosh anthem, the band certainly have the tools to make some sort of impression on the UK rock scene and perhaps front a whole new group of British bands who are determined to shove a good dose of masculinity back into our music. JoyzineHuman Race is so blistering it could melt Jacko’s face at 200 yards, while the synth-intro’d, power-popdom of Get With The Now smacks of a bid for the nation’s airwaves and With You exudes the sort of bittersweet fuzzpop Pete Shelley & Co excel at. Recommended. soundsxp.comThe music is hard driving punk-influenced rock with good, upbeat tempos and enjoyable melodies. Each song is enough to make you bounce up and down, with energy in abundance. mxdn.com
