“Hugely satisfying…ingenious…grab a slice of this refreshingly tasty aural adventure now…9/10” – Vive Le Rock Magazine, December 2018

***Full-Page Review of the new album, ‘Terremoto’ - Vive Le Rock Magazine – December 2018***

Prepare for Electric Cake Salad to hit you with a distorted mix of crunching guitars, pulsing drum loops and midi samples. They effortlessly traverse a multitude of different genres, fusing together 80s and 90s alternative rock with old-school rave and electro. Even styles as diverse as dance, drum and bass and electronica are not beyond their fingertips; they have meddled with them all, taking them apart and stitching them back together in their own unique way.

Guitarist and vocalist Steve said, “We don’t sound like other bands. We aren’t aware of other bands that mixes in 80s rave with alt-rock and electronica. It’s something that’s unique to us. We didn’t start out with some grand plan; we’re like musical magpies – if something sounds good, we’ll borrow it, change it, and turn it into something new.”

“Awesome sound. This band is primed for stardom”
– Record Collector Magazine

Critics, too, have been quick to point out how unusual Electric Cake Salad’s methods are, with notable reviews in Vive Le Rock (a December 2018 full-page review no less!), Record Collector magazine, Pure Rawk Magazine and others. They have also received regular airplay on Hard Rock Hell Radio as well as numerous worldwide Internet at FM radio stations. Guitarist Mick added, “We are defined by our unique sound – there is no drummer – all our sounds are mixed together through drum machine and electribe midi’d together.”

***NOMINATED FOR BEST BRITISH BAND AND BEST NEW SONG OF 2016 AT THE TBFM MUSIC INDUSTRY AWARDS***

While the band is not re-defining genres in the studio, they are making waves on the live circuit, performing at clubs and festivals up and down the UK and in Europe. Gone are the days when the band were semi-finalists of the Midlands Battle of The Bands and the Surface Unsigned Festival.

“A truly unique direction, that mixes elements of classic rock/metal, with electronica for a refreshingly original and exciting sound.” – Surface Unsigned

They have performed at many UK and European festivals and even stepped in as headliner at Madhatters festival in 2018 when headliners, Phil Campbell & The Bastard Sons could not perform. Showing diversity, Electric Cake Salad have recently been seen opening shows for Jesus Jones, The Crazy World of Arthur Brown and Hawkwind.

“Electric Cake Salad put together a storming set... Their 'space rock' sound – crunching guitars, over processed beats – got the crowd going as they performed tunes like Superstar with much conviction and competence.” – Herald Newspaper

Electric Cake Salad have released three albums to date with Flicknife Records; ‘Subdiffusion' in 2016, followed by “Terremoto” in 2018 and a live album, “Live: Terremotour” in November 2019. Each album has been produced by Jason Edwards (The Wildhearts/Wolfsbane) at Majestic Splendour Studios. A new album is due early 2022. All releases are available from all major digital retailers.
