Band Bio: autodrone are from new york, and still live here. To get a better idea of what we are about, please read the press below, or listen to the songs. Our first Full Legnth CD, Strike a Match will be released on NOVEMBER 11th worldwide via Clairecords. Please check out some interviews and press below. xoxoxoxox press Quotes: "There's no doubting the bruised beauty and intensely epic thorough breeding that pulses throughout the whole of 'Strike a Match'. Over the course of the ensuing years Autodrone have honed their mercurial spirit to the point of an enviable fine art, all at once intricate and devastating, caressing and crushing, tender and turbulent 'Strike a Match' is in one short word colossal and in another ravaged." - Mark Barton, Losing Today (UK) Shoegaze as a constant form still provides the thrills of its origin points, but admittedly too many bands avoid the sheer bite and anger of a lot of its earliest practitioners -- groups like early Lush, Bleach, the Charlottes, and of course My Bloody Valentine itself. New York's Autodrone, while not consciously drawing from many of those bands, finds its own strong voice on its full-length debut - 4 out of 5 stars - ALL MUSIC GUIDE "One of the flat out coolest albums I've heard in quite some time." - Post-Punk.com "A palette of great songs that swing from dark-tinged, MBV-meets-electro-rock all the way to big, inspiring numbers built on a huge bed of sound. There's a touch of pop-melodicism sprinkled throughout, but only when it feels necessary: the hooks are there, but they never dominate the tracks." - Will Joines, SonicFrontiers.net http://www.sonicfrontiers.net/php/Hear-It-First_11.html Bio: Autodrone formed in early 2002, based on a mutual love of dream pop and early 90’s Brit Rock. Seemlessly melding the sonic dynamics of noise and pop with throbbing bass lines, jagged, angular synths, searing dark atmospheric guitars and urgently violent banshee vocals, Autodrone have no problem reaching out from the stage to the crowd, grabbing you by the throat, and screaming in your face, even when in reality sometimes they are only whispering. Their shows are an intense emotional surge for the band and audience alike. Their self-released EPs have quickly developed the attention of the UK and American Press garnering universally favorable reviews, while easily selling out of print. This year, Autodrone signed to Clairecords - Catch them at CMJ 08 - SXSW, and everywhere else in the US, UK and Europe in 2009! Look for Strike A Match in stores, November 11th 2008.   Read Less »
