About Band
Presenting the distorted and stylish two-piece - Dead on the Live Wire.
Intense alternative rock, electro, breakbeats, industrial, hip-hop, and synths. Comparisons have been drawn with Nine Inch Nails, My Bloody Valentine, Nirvana, Pitchshifter and an Industrial Sonic Youth but the sound is an entirely unique entity full of menacing quirks and distorted hooks viciously lead by the male/female vocal dynamic.
Formed in Edinburgh late 2005 The Live Wire started gigging at the end of May 06 and by their 5th gig secured a slot at CBGBs, New York and at the NY Underscore going down a storm with the NYC audience.
The much talked about four track demo is available online - Kill Radio opened their Rocktober show with track ‘Cut to the Chase’.
