LABEL:     Undergroove Records / Suburban WEBSITE: www.gumedicine.co.uk MUSIC:    MySpace VIDEO:    A Meeting With Foul Play Video AGENT:    Joost Kamp BIOGRAPHY: Hailing from the gutters of deepest Barnsley, GU Medicine is a rock 'n' roll phenomenon. Dirty, greasy licks, pile driving beats and groove-laden melodies, GU Medicine are flying the face of the post-hardcore trend and encouraging listeners to remember what was good about noisy rock music in the first place - the sex, drugs and the rock 'n' roll. Dragging themselves away from the bottle (and in Ryan's case, also Northern hardcore bruisers P'S'P) in 2003, this fiery foursome quickly entered Axis Studio in Doncaster with Matt Ellis (Groop Dogdrill, Number One Son) to lay down the back bone of what would soon become their debut album. Here at Undergroove (Johnny Truant, Drive Like You Stole It, The Murder Of Rosa Luxembourg) we heard three tracks and instantly wanted a bigger dose of GU's collision rock! Heading back into the studio, more songs were recorded and GU Medicine's self-titled debut was ready. And what a debut it is! From the groove-tastic sure-fire bopper 'The Right Time', the fire cracker craziness of 'Power Take Off', the balls-out 'Cut Me Some Slack' right through to the stomping beast of a closer 'Find A Ending' GU Medicine are a tour de force of modern day rock. GU Medicine have already received airplay and glowing reviews on BBC Radio One's Rock Show as well as a Radio One Rock Show Session! They've completed two UK tours - clocking up shows with label mates Johnny Truant, Drive Like You Stole It, Aped Bi Sapien and other bands including Aura Sun (Lockjaw). back |
