Fake Gimms

Rock music for the tired.

About Me


Fake Gimms solves the drought that plagues mainstream rock radio. Their music is well-versed, edgy, memorable and melodic, integrating an intense sonic union of rhythmic groove-rock arrangements and harmonious vocal brilliance.
After returning from a brief East Coast tour at the end of 2004, the New Jersey based quartet settled into several home recording studios to self-produce what has now in 2007 been released as "Vivamus Metus," the group's first full length album. The first single "The Cell Phone Song," found on Fake Gimms' recent EP samplers and which has also been played over 20 thousand times by fans worldwide on mySpace, serves up a powerful listening experience in the vein of Muse, Weezer and Queens of the Stone Age, sewn into an extraordinarily tight arrangement that most accurately exemplifies the style of Fake Gimms.
Driven by natural talent and unbending determination, Fake Gimms' accessible sound has already begun to propel them deep into the hearts and ears of rock fans that still have hope that a new band can have something true to offer. They have harnessed tools such as mySpace, GarageBand, and tireless self promotion through their website to spread their music around the world and to as many people as independently possible. In support of their CD release, the band has scheduled a slew of Northeast shows highlighted by a performance in May at the 2007 Bamboozle Festival at Giants Stadium.
