Clean Living's - The Novocaines are the debut signing to Clean Living Records Ltd. Discovered by John Funnell, they have been touted as the best new band to come out of the South West four many years. The Novocaines have built a massive fan following through continuing air time and playing many gigs to mass audiences throughout the UK , some ending in controversy with inter fan rioting, but do not let this shadow their ability to perform. A great live act.
"Hardworking and Innovative a real pleasure to watch"
"Phat Choonage that makes your heart pop"
"The Novocaines are for working class youths from Gloucester whose music illustrates their aesthetics. Playing from the heart anthems for todays working class heroes."
"The Novocaines cross genres. The sound is intrinsic to the new wave movement with fast beats and catchy riffs, but still relishing on the retro"

KRUGER - ISSUE 13. MAGAZINE REVIEW
THE NOVOCAINES
Heroes and Heroines
Clean Living RecordsAfter much to-ing and fro-ing I fi nally got my hands on the new EP from the west country’s favourite underground band, The Novocaines. It’s a lovely little piece: ‘Isolated Love’ is an intelligent Britpopesque gem, while ‘Heroes and Heroines’ is a great uptempo jangling party music. Fuck the comparisons, this is tightlyplayed, bright, shimmery guitar pop at its glorious lo-fi best. Look out for the hidden interjection of (live) drum&bass too: rinse out! And refreshing in these days of Mygeneration bands (who can’t play live for shit). Wicked.
