Ahead of the curve... Death Metal Disco Scene

I have a real treat for you today, Death Metal Disco Scene, a London based band that already have some recognition for remixing such artists as Kylie Minogue, Lily Allen, The Verve, Bat For Lashes. David James Billing apparently started this as a one man project, it gave banging tracks from day one, as soon both Major and Independent labels have sniffed the smell of fresh and easily marketable talent.







He then though of making some of his own music, he found the special ingredient with a close friend, Scorch Shepherd.. Today they are ready with a set of songs to play at every gig, with a few bangers such as 21, Criminals and The Dead. BBC Radio One has already played 21. This is a sneaky little Indie-Rock song that reveals its powers the second the chorus kicks in, showing off its catchy and danceable energy.

Track of the day... Death Metal Disco Scene - 21

Yes, its another chance to catch my track of the day, getting bigger and better tracks everyday. So far this accolade has been given to Bloc Party and run,WALK!... today its the turn of a small band from London.



Death Metal Disco Scene are a small band that hasn't been playing live for one year yet! With lots of tracks being recorded at the moment (for what I can only think of a EP/MiniAlbum or a full length Album). They do a plesent setlist every time they play. 21 is the track of the day. This track has a fabulous producer (which I think must be a pro!). The start is a brilliant idea, the chorus is superb with echos of a mainstream dance/rock/crossover artist. Live this song blew me off my feet! I bought the 10" before the gig and was not saddened when they played this banger, only 300 of them are avaliable so if they make it big (and they will with rumors of Kitsune being interested) this will be worth lots!

“Unsigned London-based crossover pop duo David James Billing and Scorch Shepherd. The Discodust blog called their debut single, 21, “a serious contender for the indie dancefloor crown”. Record labels are flocking as we speak.” - The Guardian

Out of five - 5 - Keep a very close eye on this band, with powerful vocals behind them, a good producer, brillaint backing vocals, a good bassist, good guitarist and a lovely drummer. The end result has to be 5/5
