DrownedInSound.com

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 10/11/2005
Band Website: funwithwizardstencils.co.uk/
Band Members: Dan Howard - Guitar and Vocals
David Hemmings - Guitar and Vocals
Chris Newbould - Bass
Ben Johnson - Drums

Sounds Like: "...punchy and pop-infected, akin to The Futureheads poising notes at sharper angles. Ditch the doubts at the door: expect to be impressed."
Rock Sound

"...the whole thing's held together by some of the jerkiest guitar work this side of a Jade Tree compilation."
www.drownedinsound.com

"A curious combo of At The Drive-In and Interpol, splashed with a bit of Foals-ian mathletics, tight and adventurous, Wintermute are cool."
www.NME.com

"...smart as a button in a nerd rock style and stomping out some very precise, upright indie pop.... Morphic pop in motion."
Sandman Magazine

"Wintermute performed with great passion and determination and kept their audience engaged throughout their entire set.....Delicate guitar parts and stomping drum beats fuse together to produce a sound that is richly powerful..."
www.themusicguru.co.uk

"...a bright, driving set of superbly well-rehearsed songs packed with nimble staccato riffs and power-surging bass lines."
www.whisperinandhollerin.com

"With some bands you can hear them straining to find the right sound... but Wintermute have the ideas and, importantly, the ability to put their ideas into practice."
Vibrations Magazine

"...steeped in intensity and emotion... a well of talent and creativity that points to a bright future."
www.highvoltage.org.uk

"...in the art of great alternative rock, Wintermute are definitely showing the potential to create their own interpretation on such an art form."
www.roomthirteen.com

"To come out with something this good so early is just brilliant. Imagine what they could do in the future. Could be huge."
www.comfortcomes.com

"Wintermute is an inspiring experience... one every individual should indulge in."

Record Label: On The Bone Records
