About Me

If The Who drove at high speed, crashed into a giant synthesiser and the whole thing turned into a supermonster that had sex with The Flaming Lips and The Beach Boys, then, as well as creating a mess, you’d come close to describing the awesomeness of My Federation.

They are psychedelic electro rock with balls and bells.

Don't Wanna Die single out in February 2008, Album out in March 2008...

HONEY BEE EP REVIEWS

indielondon.co.uk
“Honey Bee hits you straight between the eyes with its early throbbing bassline and hand-clap beats before changing gears for an electro rock meltdown that’s totally disarming.”

020.com
“Keep your ears peeled for this lot, if there’s any justice they should drop like a meteor in a crowded shopping complex very soon.”

Notion
“Trashy, head shaking lo-fi with enough texture to warrant some real attention, drawing rock and dance into an understated psychedelic mix.”

New Noise Review
“Dealers in hot psychedelic electro-rock, this is as impressive as a varied red light district and propels out of the stereo with a zeal that recalls Lo Fidelity Allstars before their reputation ruined things. A combination that amidst the darkness sets the heart beating.”

SubbaCultcha
“Wonderfully wired psyche rock with a propulsive core.”

Disorder
“…reminiscent of the Stone Roses…fast and fun pop.”

culturedeluxe.com
“…a monumentous step in the right direction for music. Sounding like Kasabian being tutored by The Aliens, 'Honey Bee' fits in perfectly in these baggy-revival times and shows countless 'new rave' chancers just what they should sound like.”

BBC Radio 1 TOTP Chart Blog
“Rather than lay down and mope they've got a fella rampaging around at speed with a great big bumble bee bass guitar and they're all shouting at each other cos they're having all the fun in the world. Now, I'm not saying ALL music should be more like this. I'm saying MORE music should be more like this. OK?”
