1. The Good The Bad are quite easily one of the best live acts we've ever seen and would therefore urge you to come and check them out on Monday Sep 26th at Madame JoJo's in Soho. (It's free so bring however many people you like) here's some more testimony to their live prowess http://youtu.be/rvHV3C7YGXU
2. They're from Copenhagen and don't play UK too often, so even more reason to not miss out.
3. It's the TGTB album launch party for second LP 'From 018 To 033' – so will be goodies and party vibes aplenty + XFM DJs and some great other new bands on the bill. Check out the album here http://bit.ly/p0nzNn
More info on The Good The Bad - 'From 018 To 033' - Album release October 31st
"Their songs are an explosion of energy and subtle sensuality that would get them hired by Quentin Tarantino before the first one is over." Alt Sounds"It's cinematic, it's retro-tastic, it's sexy, funky, riff-laden, surf-savvy and, above all, hugely enjoyable" Indie London"The Good The Bad are an incredible band, the best I've seen at SXSW" Wayne Kramer MC5For more information visit: www.thegood-thebad.com / www.facebook.com/tgtbfb / www.myspace.com/tgtb
Back off European tour with Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and several killer appearances at festivals this summer The Good The Bad are gearing up to unveil their sophomore album to an unsuspecting public. 'From 018 To 033' displays an exciting progression from their critically acclaimed debut, which attracted obsessive support among press and musical peers alike. The Good The Bad returned between live dates to their Copenhagen base, a nuclear bunker and creative haven for Denmark's Warhol Factory types to record 'From 018 To 033'. On it you can hear the spirit of the Wild West channelled through Ennio Morricone, Bill Conti and other masters like Phil Spector, John Barry and Lalo Schifrin. Yet it's not all cinematic and serene, their love for all things 60s prevails in their uncanny way of updating new takes of familiar motifs and signature riffs by The Kinks, The Who, Hendrix and many besides. This is a history lesson for those who never went to school, but it's also a new dawn and a new day where the rules simply don't apply. The result is nothing short of spectacular. With a lot more vocal, flamenco guitar, mellotron, organ and other wondrous arrangements and instrumentation than was demonstrated on TGTB's debut 'From 001 To 017', there is plenty to behold here as a significant new layer you never quite grasp becomes clear with each new listen. The Good The Bad are also known for their inspired videos, especially since the viral success of 'A Girl Called 030', taken from the forthcoming album which was uploaded on Vimeo at the end of 2010. With over 2.5 million views racked up in a few months (watch it here) TGTB are building fans as far and wide as Mexico and Afghanistan. Other videos also available 'From 018 To 033' are '019' and '026' with more coming soon too! The Good The Bad are Adam Olsson (The Adam) on lead guitar, Johan Lei Gellett on drums and Manoj Ramdas (ex-The Raveonettes) on baritone guitar. TGTB's new album 'From 018 To 033' is released through Stray Cat Records on October 31st.
