About Me

Order "ON PARADE" on CD now for only 8 euros!!! Worldwide shipping included. Pay with paypal or credit card by clicking the "buy now" button below. Or on VINYL by clicking below. Only 15 euros (postage included)MURDER BY GUITAR was formed in 2005 (the year of the disco ball) by GUITAR and MURDER after some mishaps with their previous bands. A drummer was needed and many were tried out but only one of them could play a whole song without a single drum fill so, of course, he got the job. Enter BY. In early 2006 they made their first genius move by entering the Dustward to record what was to become their debut 7" with Frank E. Male. German independent label Alien Snatch released it shortly after the HOT summer of 2006. At this point the band had already recorded their debut album. Alien Snatch was once again asked to release it but unfortunately could not due to a disco allergy he had suffered from since the age of five. And that's were our heroes curently stand, looking for a record label. Enter Doctor Heatcoat II and III. As we speak innovator Doctor Headcoat II and his son the constructor Doctor Headcoat III are working on a secret weapon for the band. As of now only know as the Disco Helmet. A drastic change of events. To be continued... Immediately after the disco helmet was completed and shown to a selected private audience, record offers started coming in. Due to wanting to keep their creative freedom they decided to release it on the brand new HUMAN AUDIO RECORDINGS imprint. The cd will see the light of day March 2007 and the LP shortly thereafter on German label Sounds Of Subterrania. There will also be an Italian version of the CD on Gonna Puke Records.
