Sgt SNAFU still can't get over how good these guys sounded at the Fly last night.

Must see them again.
BLINDFOLD
"Cinematic Indie Rockers"

FAKING DREAMS PHYSICAL ALBUM OUT ON DEC 10TH 2009. PRE ORDER COPIES AT WWW.CINEPOPRECORDS.COM


BLINDFOLD consists of four guys from Iceland, living in London who create something very special. They forge a heady mixture of stunning ambience, spiky intricate punch, electronics and guitar.

One minute they bathe the listener in waves of melancholic, drifting ambient soundscape with haunting lyrics from the sparkling tonsils of front man Biggi. The next minute the powerhouse drums, punchy bass, and crashing clever guitars spiral to create a rather large leftfield progressive noise indeed!

These are not just Indie by numbers tunes, but complex meaningful tracks which cry out for adoration.

Influences abound, but none quite nail BLINDFOLD to the mast, you may hear elements of Radiohead / Sigur Rós and Ulrich Schnauss topped with a pinch of Emo / Electronica & Film Score Sonics.

BLINDFOLD's new album 'Faking Dreams' feels like a solid release, which has taken time and craft to create. It feels like a record that you want to keep, and a band that you want to follow.

Live they are tight as F*ck!! - punchier, and slightly rockier than the recorded material, and from the first note played you know these guys would blow any festival on the globe away with one giant flick of a lighter held high.

Their forthcoming new album' FAKING DREAMS" is eagerly anticipated featuring the gorgeous singles SAD FACE and Faking Dreams.

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.
