Walking Bicycles Biography
"Cult classic not best seller" Chicago’s Walking Bicycles have been making their own brand of bombastic and peculiar music since 2004. Walking Bicycles sound has been described as... "doomy, booming music that sounds like a medical emergency crossed with an existential crisis... Almost as impressive as its sheer power, though, is its concision" - STEREOGUM "the quartet hauls doom metal's weight through post-punk's sharp corners...Jason's unnerving bass lines and Deric's relentless drumwork mix seamlessly with Jocelyn's screams and Julius's squalls. It's a singular engine of sound" - NOISEY ”evoking early, abrasive Siouxsie and the Banshees and even touching on Clinic's more frenzied forays into noise pop.” - AV CLUB "dark and aggressive, but they've got plenty of hooks" - BROOKLYN VEGAN "eccentric noise-pop" - MAGNET MAGAZINE "caustic and unconventional post-punk" - CHICAGO TRIBUNE "harbingers of chaos and chords from hell dish out the punishment spiked with pleasure..." - IMPOSE MAGAZINE "acid rock recalling Jane's Addiction in their heyday coupled with garage rawness"- HIGH TIMES MAGAZINE Musings to Walking Bicycles about Walking Bicycles i.e. our pro endorsements “nice shirt” -Liam Gallagher (Oasis) “what are you doing here” –Luke Jenner (The Rapture) “you look like Jim Breuer” –Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) “How old are you” – Katy Perry “why don’t you take a minute to learn your guitar part” –Steve Albini (Shellac) “I don’t remember how to play that song” – Bono “We can always find you guys cause no one sits around you” -Tim Fletcher & Olivier Corbeil (The Stills) “Thanks for the pizza” - Shingai Shoniwa (The Noisettes) “you’re crazy” -Dave Wyndor (Monster Magnet) “no thanks” -Caleb Followill (Kings Of Leon) “I’m sorry, take your time” –Jack White “sure” –Roy Orbison Listen to Walking Bicycles music @ http://walkingbicycles.bandcamp.com/
