The Officers’ debut show was late last summer in London at the Camden Barfly. Assignations at Being Boiled and Alan McGee’s Death Disco swiftly followed, which led to them being invited to play the monster indie-dance club night Insomniacs’ Ball in October.
It also hasn't taken long to attract the eyes, ears and support of such artists as Jagz Kooner, The Music, Infadels, Happy Mondays and Freelance Hellraiser. Eddy Temple Morris @ Xfm, choosing his tip for 2008, says:
‘This demo is astonishing. I'm getting the same feeling of impending greatness that I did when I played Kasabian's demo. The Officers are my favourite new band by a f**king country mile.’
Music Week: ‘A cataclysmic slice of sexual tension, driving electronic pulses and beautifully powered vocals.’
This 5 piece from Leeds engulf you with their dark and squelchy electro basslines, massive guitar grooves, incendiary beats and rock and roll swagger. Pulling from a range of influences from the likes of The Jesus & Mary Chain, Timbaland and Stetasonic, they create filthy and compulsive electronic rock’n’roll.
Jagz Kooner (Primal Scream/Radio 4/Reverend & The Makers) recorded their first tracks, with the resulting demos being used by All Saints clothing.
Their live rock’n’roll assault in 2007 included: being handpicked by Eddy Temple Morris for his Remix Night; appearances with Reverend & The Makers, The Courteeners, The Cooper Temple Clause and Placebo; and being invited to play at Rock Am Ring Festival in Germany, the XFM stage at Secret Garden Party and Beached Festival, while the start of 2008 saw the band being personally requested by Rob Harvey to support The Music on two legs of their sold out 'Four Cities' tour.
The band are due to commence recording of what is planned to be the first single with longtime Radiohead producer and engineer Graeme Stewart in June.
