About The Eyelashes That Ate Manhattan
Now listen up and beware, 'cos reality shifting Hyper-EYELASHES lurk on the edge of this galaxy.... The Eyelashes That Ate Manhattan are a 5 piece glam/grunge/bossanova beat groop from Wrexham, North Wales. In their short time on this Earth, they have infiltrated national radio via the Bethan Elfyn show; sexed up Adam Walton's playlist; taken Steve Lamacq's report on the Wrexham music scene down a peg and into the gutter. Poised to unleash live classics 'The Hot Knife', 'Artists & Models' and 'Greasy' onto their rapt, attentive public, the "Louder Darker Stronger" EP looks set to break download records in 2010. Hang loose, brave internauts! Think: The Replacements raiding their girlfriend's wardrobe and screaming blue bloody murder, that's what. "That sexy, undeniable Rock'n'Roll bunch of rollers. Listening to them makes you IRRESISTABLE. Watching them makes you INVINCIBLE. Consorting with them makes you INCORRIGIBLE. We'll ride a peacock to paradise and piss on the Louvre, we'll swim out to Neptune to take in the view.... WHAT A THING TO DO!!!" The Plutonian Herald "Despite allusions to the Big apple, The Eyelashes That Ate MAnhattan were born under the sign of the leek, and like generations of writers before us presented with Welsh boys favouring sharp threads and New York gutter punk before them, we want to make remarks about bringing glam to Glamorgan and the Dolls to the valley here. Except that, specifically, they're from Wrexham. So it doesn't quite work. All the same, the strut 'n' drawl of 'Brutality' works a trashy charm without ever sounding like it's trying. " Bubblegum Slut Magazine "Like Jarvis Cocker fronting The Stooges" Coppack's Corner "Love that filthy rock'n'roll style" Bethan Elfyn, Radio One "Erm..." Adam Walton, BBC Radio Wales
