About us


A boy and a girl collide one night under Tokyo's neon sky. They stay up for hours fighting it out over Blondie, Wire and The Ramones. Boy plays the guitar, so girl dusts off her bass and after a few riffs, suddenly,
it all just makes perfect sense. A few weeks, a bunch of cool, tough-as-f**k songs and one long plane journey later, and they're ready to take on London...

A combination of sloganeering vocals,barely controled guitar and electronics pushed to the point of meltdown,Levelload are unashamedly pop yet hit harder than a horse-shoe in a boxing glove.

There the screaming banshee/three chord lightning bolt duo were picked up on straight away by John Peel, who featured their first song Palookaville, a track described as having the best vocals since Leatherface's'Razor Blades and aspirin', on his show and gave it a rare 3 star rating.
After laying waste to venues around the UK, Ireland, and the occasional foray into Europe (inc a dj set from the Hives) they released the single "HND in RNR"- a slice of punky yet catchy, classic pop featured in the movie "Dirty Sanchez the movie" that earned rave reviews,radio play and a coca-cola
produced video.
The successful tours in Germany and Japan that followed see them poised to spread their bounderies still further.
