Music Glue - The Band Is The Brand

The Good Gods!

The Good Gods! - Scrubbed up indy-pop with a wry grin and a dirty mind have eight legs, thirty two fingers and four hearts. Direct and indirect descendants of the Angryband, The Good Gods! came into being in the summer of 08' though remain hidden for some months, only leaving the safety of the rehearsal room to forage for food, record and play the occasional gig.  Their four hearts now beating in time to the rhythm of the inextricably talented Ed Seed, seem energized and improved. This new energy has acted as a spark of life which is given mass and texture by the nimble fingered David Hardy, on his ever evolving, uplifting yet grounding bass guitar. Leaving the mouth and mind of the beast to be supplied by the bespectacled Tom Hatred, who has been bubbling under the surface of the indie scene for sometime being called both an "anti-folk hero" in Dazed and Confused as well as a "new-folk starlet" in the NME, though it is with The Good Gods! he truly finds his voice, both literally and metaphorically.

Now fully formed and itching to go The Good Gods! are set to hit the unsuspecting public with the release of their next single, ‘Lying On Our Bright Red Backs' on the Games Today record label. This follows the remarkable and utterly transformed version of Robert Palmer's Addicted To Love, which had Radio One's Rob Da Bank describe it as "great". With an album set to be released in October and a UK tour in the pipeline expect to hear much, much more from The Good Gods! in the near future.
