EEL MEN (UK)
"Now there is an elegance to the way London’s Eel Men power through their propulsive mix of chords and words. It makes for a slightly punky piece of rebellion but ‘Pink Ones’ leaves plenty of room for toe tapping it has to be said. Or more pronounced reactions to be precise, namely pogoing on the spot as if we’re in the pit and more inclined to throw ourselves into the moment. All that leads me to believe that Eel Men have captured the essence of the underground spirit here and I intend to down that by the crateload" - KH-MP3HUGGER, 2024
"Eel Men use the classic vocabulary of British rock music but create something fresh and immediately enjoyable. It sounds polished and DIY at the same time, carefully arranged but still drawn from punk around the edges. All four songs are jams (get it?) and I look forward to more. And if this was really recorded live, Eel Men are a band to check out, because the performance is flawless" - MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL, 2022
Eel Men formed in 2021. Couched in the instability of the present and the microcosm of North London, they prioritise angular guitars, straight rhythms and fanatical storytelling. After a long series of sweaty UK gigs and having already toured extensively around Europe, with gigs ranging from family friendly festivals to ex gestapo headquarters turned anarchist squats, there’s lots more on the horizon. 2025 see’s Eel Men release their debut LP ‘Stop It! Do Something.’ via No Front Teeth (UK / EU) Big Neck Records (US) and embark on an extensive EU tour.
Do yourself a favour and make sure you catch them live at one of their upcoming dates.
Vergesst den Big Ben und die Royals – das einzig Wahre, was derzeit aus dem Dunstschleier Nordlondons auftaucht, sind die Eel Men. Gegründet 2021 im Chaos der Gegenwart (ja, wir schauen dich an, Weltgeschichte!), bringen die Jungs das mit, was alle jetzt brauchen: Kantige Gitarren und straighte Rhythmen.
Die Eel Men sind nicht einfach nur eine Band – sie sind ein Mikrokosmos aus Garage-Sound und leidenschaftlichem Storytelling.
Packt die Doc Martens ein, lasst die Etikette zu Hause und bereitet euch darauf vor, euch dem Moment voll und ganz hinzugeben.
