About us


"If you imagine a world somewhere between Manchester and Berlin; a place mid-way between Joy Division and The Chameleons; a voice fixated somewhere between Billy McKenzie and Thurston Moore. Not that the dark shadows cast by The Marder actually seek to copy or indeed sound like any of these icons, but they’re hitting the genre that could make them equals. From the industrial wedges of bass guitar to the heartbeat perfect and wild rolls of maybe one of Manchester’s best drummers, their singer and guitarist is the funnel for all of this almost unbridled energy. The crack of “Forty” and the intense mind blowing ructions of “If The West Apologised To The East” are merely small nuclear missiles, launched from what promises to be an increasingly threatening arsenal of songs."
