"Neon Plastix"
"Neon Plastix"
Hailing from Doncaster; NEON PLASTIX live on the sunny-side but cross over the tracks to practice, where they call an industrial welding estate home and nobody minds the electro pop disco racket there! Since 2005 they’ve taken over their home town with an explosion of sound, playing their take on influences ranging from Devo, Talking Heads, U2, Japan, to The Rapture, The Faint, Hall and Oates… the list is endless. And when they’re not painting your ear canals with musical vibrations, they’re running their very own club night – CLUB PLASTIX at The Boiler Rooms in Doncaster. They released their limited debut “Prick Tease” / “Neon Invasion” in February which gained support from Steve Lamacq on Radio 1 and Silent Dave on Virgin Xtreme. Since then they’ve been playing up and down the UK along the way bagging supports for The Kooks, White Rose Movement, The Infadels, Klaxons, Robots in Disguise, Test-Icicles, The Duels, The Blood Arm, Good Shoes, Howling Bells, Clor, and The Young Knives. This Summer they played the launch parties for Vice Magazine in both Antwerp and Amsterdam, and have recently been invited to Dublin and Italy. In September the band completed their self-titled UK ‘Tour O’ Doom’ (complete with onstage exercise machine for any willing members of the audience) taking in the Barfly venues around the country and culminating in a Club NME headline slot at London’s KOKO. On November 6th they release their second single, the limited double A-side ‘DREAM’ / ‘ON FIRE’ released on ltd. CD and download - the second step towards complete Neonisation!
