CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For some excellent reason you're reading about us. Yes we are NEON, the band you have heard all those amazing things about!!................ maybe. If you have'nt heard our music before, we won't bother trying to describe what we sound like, probably out of laziness, but also because it's much easier if you just have a listen to the songs on this page. They're from our first album, the cleverly titled 'Neon'. SO if you've done that and your still reading....well err, keep it up, the reading that is.
We have been in hibernation for quite a while now, (accept for a brief but stunning tour of Spain in January with the legendary power pop outfit Redd Kross!) writing new material for our forthcoming second album! What can we tell you about it right now? Well................EVOLVED. INVOLVED. WARMER. RAWER.
Here's some reviews of our music
Indeed. Dry-as-a-bone riffing of (Hit Me Again),sublime psych-pop hooks (Dizziness) and a rousing cover of Cheap Trick (He's A Whore) come as a standard, but with it, comes an opaque lyricism which suggests that beneath the riffola a darker mindset. When Josh drawls I got the key in my hand/But theres no way out in Dizziness it feels both lurid and disorientating.
Neon: prepare to bathe in their sleazy glow - Paul Moody NME
'Just when you think this single is straight ahead pop-rock, it goes into glorious harmonies and swirling effects... the songs are instant classic' - Single of the Week, The Daily Telegraph
'Now here's a great song...'A Man' is an all-powerful powerpop/rock song that's as good as Tom Petty and The Hearbreaker's fab 'Strangered In The Night', but it's the pealing whirling middle eight that really pushes the track into overdrive and makes it something special' - Inpress
'This is the band that should have lead the Australian rock renaissance...' -Beat
