Since it's inception in Fall of 2003 Diet Audio's unique, dark art-rock sound steeped in electronics has garnered a loyal following of fans, and the momentum just keeps building. The band recently garnered a Cincinnati Entertainment Award as proof. From the bands "massive" live shows to their "captivating" recordings, Diet Audio delivers both in studio and on stage.

Diet Audio have headlined venues from NYC to Indy, and have an ever growing international fan base. Diet Audio have performed at Desdemona Festival with bands including The Fiery Furnaces, The Walkmen, Ghostface Killah, Enon, Rogue Wave and others. They have also performced at the prestigous Midpoint Music Festival for four consecutive years (2004- 2007), headlined Electrofest, performed at Chicks Rockfest music festival, Revolutions Art & Music Festival and Hell's Half Mile Music & Film Festival among others. Diet Audio have also shared the stage with bands such as Forgette Cassettes, Aberdeen City and Ike Reilly. Ecrasez L' Infame is in rotation on college radio and can be heard on numerous webcasts.

Diet Audio's fan base reached overseas in 2005 as the video for "Naked" made it's debut at a Paris film festival.

Diet Audio are currently working on their second CD.

“Ecrasez L’Infame is down-beat, electronic rock at its finest. This album is melanic and brooding, and its songs will rattle around your head for weeks to come.”

Dayton Daily News

"This three-year-old band has perfected the art of sound manipulation...Their shows are massive..."

CityBeat

"They're more soulful than Portishead and more on-target musically than Hooverphonic."

CityBeat

"...Diet Audio creates a potent sonic hybrid..."CityBeat

"Although they perpetually seem pulled back and forth between Trip Hop programming and precise New Wave pummeling, Diet Audio has no trouble maintaining a consistent persona thanks to Amy Whitaker's dour vocals. Whichever stylistic turn the song takes, her breathless performances are the band's centerpiece."

CityBeat

"A series of bleeps, monotone sentence fragments, laser-chimes, a pulsating bassline, an authoritative leading lady: Cincinnati's Diet Audio provides the soundtrack to the dreams you wish you were having. Amy Whitaker's otherworldly voice is only the invitation to a visceral, heat-seeking celebration of the body's unspoken and involuntary contract with rhythm."

Rolling Stone

Please stop Calling us.

CityBeat

"Like most beat-driven music, Diet Audio inspires motion, but it's not the drum machine you'll lock into and groove with, it's Amy Whitaker's dreamy vocals. Whether it's a hushed or powerful passage, her sensual voice connects the band's brooding combination of electronic and visceral live sounds to the real world."
