Mellotron Overdrive R.I.P

About Me


Once upon a time, there was a band called Mellotron Overdrive, made up of 2 people both called Dave. One on guitar and the other on drums. They wrote many songs, gigged many times and recorded lots of music in a studio with a man called Andy, to very good reviews. However Mellotron Overdrive's usual gig attendance level was normally around the 0-5 mark. Therefore, they split up to do other things. But they left 4 of their songs on here for you all to download if you like the noise. Joking aside thanks to all of you for supporting us, if anyone wants a CD with all our stuff on it drop me a message i'll post one to you. Im sure we'll be back sooner or later, but for now...
Thankyou and Goodnight

"Mellotron Overdrive are a shit hot band from Wolverhampton, they may only be a two piece, however they make such an immense noise it makes you feel they've got all the members of The Cooper Temple Clause backing them up."
- e.rocker.com
"Mellotron Overdrive rock, like they come from the planet rock, and are made of rock, and rode in on rocking horses."
- Media Assassin
Mellotron Overdrive, what can we say? From the thumpy remain in light, to the incredible Deleted Scenes, this two piece band are our dark horses to succeed. If you haven’t checked em out… Why Not?! You wont regret it, Mellotron are ones to watch for the future.
- Monochrome Museum
Definite sparks of disco, funk, & death metal are evident in their sound, and for a 2 piece band they have such talent and variation that other more established 2 piece groups such as 'Big Business' and 'The White Stripes' should feel ashamed of their limitations.
