Band Review

El Policia consists of 3 members: Sam Wall, Al Wheatley and Hugh Thomas, who together have formed a great relationship to create some innovative music. The three sit in a dark basement to write descriptive lyrics and say what they mean. Sam: "We used to write a lot of things on the walls of the basement, and now looking back it's given us great inspiration, but some just makes us laugh."

'Miss My Youth', the lead single with just under 2500 plays on the bands myspace, is a rollicking rock song, with fierce high-gain guitar, a heavy roll of drums, followed by a subtle bassline, and slurred lyrics, providing the perfect combination to describe a strange relationship of boy and girl: "I won't treat you like I should, I'll watch you float like driftwood."

ROADHOUSE: ''Manchester’s next big thing EL POLICIA, definitely ones for the future!''

You can check the band out at their myspace for their own personal blog updates, tour dates, and of course listen to the fantastic sounds of El Policia at www.myspace.com/elpolicia
