"Don't Think It's a Sin" Available for a free download Sign up and get the free download sent to your inbox! Blindfold is made up of four of Icelands newest and cutting-edge young musicians who live in North London and have been in the UK for the last few years creating their music. They have a passion for exploring new sounds and creating mesmerising songs, made by a vast mix of textures carefully crafted on only guitars (Svenni), bass (Teitur) and drums (Friðrik). This alongside the enigmatic vocals of frontman & composer Biggi Hilmarsson is truly provoking and real. You have to experience them live and on record to understand why they will have real longevity and continued rave reviews. Blindfold are creating their own distinctive and unparalleled cross genre music. The debut album ‘Blindfold’ was received with un-precedented positive response and now their forthcoming new album is eagerly anticipated. The press are saying they are creating music where everyone will want to own a ‘Blindfold’ album and their sound and style are pushing boundaries. “Mesmerising” - WIRE Magazine “Haunting & Compelling” - Spoonfed Media “Gorgeously Textured Songs” - Radio Capitol Roma Blindfold will be playing at the Iceland Airwaves festival 2008, which is held in Reykjavík 15-19 Oktober. Exact date coming soon. © Photos by María Kjartansdóttir REVIEWS "...The structure of their songs is haunting and compelling - they sneak up on you and then whirl into intense but gorgeous crescendos that engulf the audience. The crowd's receptivity is proven when lead singer Biggi asks whether they should play the 'long version or the short version' of their single 'Sleepless Nights'. Fortunately the long version is the unanimous decision and serves as another example of how they manage to make the melancholy downright pretty" - Spoonfed Media UK 2008 "...combines sparse electronica with a warmer melodicism and adopts a wistfully melancholy tone" - Wire Magazine "a mesmerising assortment of electronica, post rock, indie and atmospheric film score-esque soundtracks" - Angryape.com "...a gorgeously textured album whose aural Putsch is impossible to resist. Lovely" - Boomkat.com "The mood is that of restless nights spent wandering under a moon that looks like a bloodshot eye" - Lost at sea "The sound they produce with e-bow dexterity is close to lamenting synths. The pleasant surprise was that their blending of Joy Division, Enya and emo actually works." - Live review Skinny Magazine FOR BOOKINGS AND ALL INFORMATION Management: JC - jc@urbanfoxmusic.com The Band: blindfold@blindfoldmusic.co.uk TV: Matt Connolly - matt@fclpr.com Radio: Chris Hession - chris@fclpr.com |
