Moustache Of Insanity

About Me

Next show!


It's in London Town! Woo-zaa!

Oh Oh, spaghetti-o's!
Our self-titled EP/mini-album is now almost sold out! If you want one of the last twenty or so copies you can still order it from WeePOP! Records . When it's gone it's gone. It has nine brand new songs on it and comes with a 12-page comic made by our very good friend James Paterson. Also, each copy of the EP comes with a unique badge, made by Nik. Woo. Really, they're all different and it took forever...see.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 21/04/2008
Band Website: http://www.moustacheofinsanity.com
Band Members: Nik and Bill, Bill and Nik, Bill, Nik etc
Influences: I created my layout at KillerKiwi.net
Sounds Like: Sometimes people talk about us:

"In North America, there are signs that the moustache is rallying, even if somewhat ironically: indie bands, such as Britain’s Moustache Of Insanity, and celebrities Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom have made some powerful lip statements." - The National (Dubai newspaper)

"god awful out of tune vocals, but an endearing plinky plonk tune" - Russell's Reviews (on Living Room Picnic)

"officially one of our favorite new twee pop bands...If you like to have a good time, we urge you to check these guys out." - Viva Indie Rock blog (North Carolina, US of A)

"With the capacity to be both heart-felt and silly at the same time, Moustache of Insanity are a joy to behold. The lo-fi aesthetics and wry confessional lyrics recall anti-folk, but the sound is bouncy indie pop that's more infectious than swine flu. (Sorry, that was terrible.)" - The Gentle Invasion, Edinburgh

"jouyously daft and enjoyable" - Cancel The Astronauts blog

"These guys are brilliant. Twee-casio-pop ahoy, they are a bit like Moldy Peaches with tiny keyboards and facial hair. One of the most fun bands we've heard in a while."
- Pull Yourself Together, Manchester

"Silly and fun casio-pop" - indiepages.com (DEMO OF THE WEEK - 20th April 09)

"a daft combination of twee bedroom pop and the Moldy Peaches at their most cutesy" - Indie MP3

"The Morecambe and Wise of Casio pop" - Little Other blog

"Some blokes with beards"

"The best band you've never heard"

"twee-pop knob heads"

"Will Harrison's mob"

That's about it really so far....
