Ambulance

Witnessing one of Ambulance's live shows is a sight to behold, they're energetic, sweaty and confusing. One minute slacker rock, one minute parping a bugle, the next they're jamming on their Theremin. They're half geeky, half red-neck chic and mostly messy. Yet from this bag of shambolic chaos they still manage to pull something strangely unique and interesting.

Much of their tardiness has to be blamed on their relaxed approach to being a signed band. For starters they live in three different cities between the four of them, Liverpool being their spiritual home, but also residents of York and Edinburgh. Though their lax approach to music making is very much part of the Ambulance sound, they themselves confess that they "hardly ever play live. It's just a load of hassle."

The band's now infamous 12" release of 'I'm A Star I'm An Angel', that features the track's title looped from virtually start to finish is awash with lo-fi bleeps and noises. The track is almost dance / almost indie and was originally released on Honey Records but has since been re-recorded for their new EP.

Signed by Robot Records they released their EP on the 28th of October 2002.
