About Me

NEW IMOLA TRACKS RECORDED @ Monkey Puzzle House, late June 2007

New EP to be announced soon!

Imola formed in November '05 out of a mutual love of big riffs and alcohol. Over the past 18 months they've written a tankful of loud rock anthems, recorded two EPs and made new friends all over Sussex thanks to their live shows.

If you'd like to book Imola for a show in your town, call 07980 210001.

Influences: "The world is like a ride in an amusement park and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and around and around and it has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud. And it's fun - for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question; is this real? Or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, and they say, "Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because... this is just a ride."
Bill Hicks

Imola is a big wide race track built from the alt rock sounds of The Foos, Pearl Jam & Soundgarden, all held together with Rizla+ and Gin.

Sounds Like: A giant wave of electrified lava crashing over your speakers, swept ever onwards by an enchanted 7-string guitar, a winged bassline breathing arcs of fire through it's pointed teeth, the terrifying drums of nine thousand orc warriors and the searing screams of the combined elementals singing as one unto the heavens.




Record Label: Not just yet.
