NICE GUYS - DIRT MUSIC

About Me

YO. Keep the shows coming, we love that shit! Thankyou so much for all the love you guys give us its amazing! We are making a record next month - hold fucking tight....x
We are The Old Romantic Killer Band and we live in Yorkshire. We blend folk and blues and punk and we used to have a basement to practse in but now we're big shots with an actual real-life rehearsal space - sell outs. We have a single out on Bad Sneakers Records and you should buy it!

Atko is amazing and does excellent demos and our friend James does our artwork and is the best ever. Then you have wicked people like Chris who drives us, Dan who puts on mega shows, Sam who inspires us to keep playing blues even though no-one else does and a whole heap of rad dudes that help us out.
NICE WORDS:
"Still keeping with the two pieces, less garage rock and more rhythm and blues were The Old Romantic Killer band. They sound like The White Stripes being bummed by an extra confrontational Who.With amps turned up to deaf-inducing levels it was a case of catching the orchestrated apocalypse unfolding before the Old Street pub crowd while pinned up against the back wall. Seriously, with their bluesy rollock still ringing in my ears, if ORKB smelt any stronger or brilliance you could probably paint a white stripe on it and call it a skunk. Sniff.The duo certainly make your mind whirr with excitement and your legs wobble in post coital pleasure. And they're only just on the brink of releasing thier debut single. Catch them before they get over produced and primmed for Virgin Radio by some major label engineer...Big things beckon." - Artrocker March '08
'You Dont Know How to Love' - Top 5 singles : John Kennedy XFM!!
"The Old Romantic Killer Band are the real deal; a genuinely exciting prospect for 2008 who surely won't remain under the radar for much longer" - Drowned in Sound
Amazing ROCK LOUDER review!!
