The Arm
The Arm are a three piece instrumental band from the West Midlands. Formed in 2003, the band’s members are: Alex Keane (guitar), Warren Thelwell (bass) and Mike Rowley (drums). The Arm’s unique sound blends awkward math rock riffs with electronica resulting in their acclaimed self-titled debut EP on Speedowax in 2005. Having played with the likes of Kid Commando, Oxes, Oxbow, Mono and French Toast, the band were included in Capsule’s SXSW compilation “Supersonic - Treats From The Heart Of England” earlier this year, which was curated by left-field luminaries such as ATP’s Barry Hogan and Static Caravan. Returning to the studio late last year, The Arm emerged with a new four-track EP, “He Builds Bombs” which is released on Transduction on June 28th. On “He Builds Bombs”, The Arm have stepped up the intensity with a relentless assault of frenzied rhythms, razor-edged guitars and acid damaged electronica.
“It’s thrilling listening to these guys slam around the studio - they must have shoulders made of iron” - The Fly
“One of the most original and innovative bands I have heard in a long time” - Zero Tolerance
“Like a jagged mixture of Hella and Don Caballero, this is a band you really should check out” - Rock Sound

(retards) are from dublin. They like to make people dance and cry. They like noise. They like cute girls. They're also very productive having released three albums including this year's "Forth glory hole" and two 7"s to date. No wave, noise, rock and more noise.
