Odd Shaped Head - Corpse in the Kitchen

Biography taken from http://www.unsigned.com/oddshapedhead:

"Leapfrogging conventional rock sounds and hop-scotching conformity, these unassuming young gentlemen yell Up your pigeon-hole! to an industry obsessed with format and repeated musical templates. In the humble surroundings of a quaint English seaside village, four of the four members of odd shaped head reside in chaotic harmony:

Paul (Bass/Vocals)
Ricky (Guitar/ Vocals)
Rob (Drums)
Andrew (Guitar);
from childhood chums to grown up geeky misfits.

The quirky quartet take a plunge with their new single and video ~ the multi coloured ket song ~ due to feature on MTV and stamp their un-erasable mark on 2006. I want a red oneyou can have an orange one well you cant always get what you want! is the Odd shApEd mantra chanted as a dull grey world is assaulted with splatters of bold bright colour.

Their eclectic brand of energetic, rhythmic, funk-punk; jerky bass popping, powerful scatterbrained drumming and stabbing guitars bursting into vibrant melodies draws more fans along to venues already packed with a collage of characters.

Quintessentially British - just like The Beatles are rock, but aren't, Odd Shaped Head are punk, but aren't every half-baked crap band in the world could learn something from these guysthis single will be their road to fame. Excellent!! Lowcut Magazine, Denmark 06"

Their music is very upbeat and quite guitar driven. They are known for their energetic live performances and have had two videos shown regularly on MTV2. Their songs are fast paced and very lively but aren't heavy at all. They gathered quite a large fan base due to their touring up and down the country and the music that they play. they have taken inspiration from bands from the 80s, this is reflected in the upbeatness and use of synthesizers in their songs. They released their debut album, 'I Wonder How This Endeavour Will End?', in 2007 but have not had much success since then. They have a very similar sound to the band The Futureheads.
