HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE...AND NOW BACK TO WORK...After seeing the New Year in with our nearest and dearest in the hallowed rooms of Oxford's Zodiac, we find ourselves already half way through January and as glum as you like. Winter blues. To alleviate our strain, we’re busy writing and demoing some exciting new trappings from our bunker, deep in Oxfordshire. Hopefully we’ll be unleashing some of this on you soon. As you should know with us by now, we get bored easily and so once again are experimenting with new ideas. The next rack of live shows are starting up for us this week, seeing us blast our way down to Southeast London’s New Cross Inn to bring our electro dance pop to the wonderful scene buzzing down there. God bless Caffy St Luce and all at Rocklands. We hope to see you there.
Hope you liked the photos from our short Italian adventure!
Love,
D&Nx

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE...Well we're back from our first visit to Europe. It really did feel like we were in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" at times. After flying into Milan we had time for a little site seeing before playing in the fashion capital. A good night was had before we headed to Turin via not so high speed train. We had a really top night in El Bario and a massive thank you to Mario and co for having us.

A huge hello to all the friends we made out there and we are hoping to come back in the New Year sooner rather than later.

We have footage and some pics which we hope to be up on the site soon. Keep a look out in the New Year.

We have one more gig in Oxford at the old Point on Fri, before the New Year kicks off with some recording. A massive thank you everyone who has helped and supported this year. Lets hope next year is even more productive and successfull. We'll have adrink for u this New Year's eve. CHEERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT'S WET AND COLD...The recent wet and very cold spells we've had here, have seen us locked away in our studio, huddled around the clapped out heater, working away writing new songs and we have to tell you that they are giving us the goosebumps! Over the past two days, we've laid down a working demo of the first of these songs and we'll be playing it live for the first time at our forthcoming Italian shows. deutsche Tanzmusik.

KROQ, SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO, HOLLAND, YOU NAME IT THEY'RE PLAYING IT...We're very happy to hear that our album is getting lots of airplay from all our friends around the world. Rodney continues to spin "West End" while our European friends are sending out other album tracks across the airwaves. Keep it coming!

It's only three weeks and counting now before we set off for Italy. We've been busy sorting out flights, kit oh and a new song which we hope to debut out there.

THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT...Sorry for the delayed response, but a big thanks to everyone who came down to The Wheatsheaf last Saturday. It was great to see so many people there, especially dancing down the front. We had a great time and really enjoyed both The Sequins and Hotknife Jackson. We were sorry to hear though that a group of our lovely fans from Bicester who came down to the gig were turned away. Don't worry, I'm sure we'll be playing these parts again soon and it would be great to see u there.

CLOSE BUT NO PUDSEY...A BIG THANKYOU GOES OUT TO THE MANY PEOPLE FROM THE UK AND AROUND THE WORLD WHO VOTED TO HELP US GET ONTO THE CHILDREN IN NEED BBC CONCERT...Noel and I are extremely grateful for the many people that showed their support for us by voting in, and in such large numbers, but unfortunatley we didn't quite make it somehow. Good luck to Harry Angel and the rest of the bands, we hope it's a great day. We have a silver lining to lift our spirits though...our good, good friend DJ Martini Bros has been working his socks off and got us lined up for two December shows in Italy, one in Milan and one in Turin. See Upcoming Shows for more information. We're also off to see DJ Wolfie at Reading's Blast 1386FM on Wednesday this week. So listen out for that if you can...it'll be better than a Chris Moyles pod cast that's for sure.

Gigs this week see us at The Shed in Leicester on Thursday 10th and our home show at The Wheatsheaf in Oxford on Saturday 12th. Come on down and move like a robot from 1984..

TECHNICAL PROBLEMS PLAUGE READING GIG BUT THE BOYS BATTLE ON We think a test of nerve and resolve was passed on Friday's gig in reading. Technical problems, unsolvable at the venue, saw us having to drop soundcheck and bomb it back past Oxford to get some more equipment back to the venue to be able to provide sound. A nightmare-ish time to say the least as we arrived back with minutes to spare before going on-stage. The set was a bit hit and miss sonically but we managed to dig in and pull out an energetic performance for the patient crowd. Thank you to everyone who cam to support us and Velocity on the night, it was very much appreciated and we hope to see you in the not too distant future with fewer problems! Good luck to The Race who are playing this Friday down at Brighton's lovely Pressure Point.

Best wishes,

David and Noel x

HARK THE GEORGIAN TERRACE AND YOU'RE NEARLY THERE! A big thank you to Gareth at Go Ape!! for looking after us so well at Moles in beautiful Bath last night. It was a great show and also really good to see the boys and girls of the city enjoying the night so much in strong numbers. Thank you to everyone who came out from the cavern like cubby-holes to tap their feet and get their first glimpse of the 100 Bullets Back electro-pop-dance machine. We hope to see you all again soon...Now onto Reading for our album launch party in the sonic home of Velcoity Recordings, The Rising Sun Arts Centre....We'll meet you all under the massive toad at 8.30pm.

Love Noel and David x

Tracks "DBM", "Wichita" and "Junk Food" have all been very kindly playlisted on www.ragtime.co.uk over the past few weeks. Ragtime is a great website which is well worthwhile checking out if you have 5 minutes for the artists they are showcasing on there.

Refute Fake Icons, as mentioned earlier, has been released and is already getting some great feedback. See the reviews from Holly at Drowned in Sound (DiS) and Sean at Organ on our In Print section. A big thank you goes out to you both.

Coupled with this, our debut offering has been gracing the turntables and airwaves of radio stations in Texas, USA and Santa Fe, Argentina while having the honour of being album of the month in September's Blah Blah magazine. Thank you to Lu and Marc.

Thanks also to Martini Bros who has been DJing as support on th Art Brut tour in Italy. Gian has been spinning Wichita which we hope has been getting those young Italian girls on there!

ALBUM TITLE ANNOUNCED After kicking around a number of titles, we have decided upon REFUTE FAKE ICONS for our limited run album which is expected to be released in July. A set date is yet to be arranged.

19.04.05

THE ALBUM HAS BEEN MASTERED, BUT A GIG CANCELLED Our Saturday show at The Metro has been pulled and we won't be appearing. We're not best pleased as we were looking forward to playing to our London friends. Hopefully it shall not be long before we are back there. Onto better news, our album has been mastered at Turan Audio which leaves us with the task of the artwork and title. We thought the recording was hard enough, but this is something else!

THE WEB MEDIA HAS ARRIVED!! After months of promising video web diary entries, we can at last raise the curtain on our first installment of this new and exciting dimension to our website. Those from farther afield in other countries who have contacted us, will now get a better insight to 100 Bullets Back. The footage below is from our recent show on the 02-04-05 in London's Water Rats Theatre, Kings Cross, performing a new song "Wichita" (also available to download from our MP3 page currently for FREE!!) which will be on our from our forthcoming album due for release in July. You can either watch the footage on this webpage by clicking the "play" button (you will have to wait for a few moments while the file gets loading!) or click on the link below the video box to watch the footage in a Windows Media Player external viewer.

You will probably find a Broadband connection is the only way of viewing this properly.......enjoy.

THE ALBUM IS ON ITS WAY! After months of reading entry after entry saying we've been locked away in the studio grafting, we weren't joking, the hard work has already been evident at our shows but will now be taking further shape with our debut album, expected to drop at the end of June. It's sounding HOT! Can't wait to get it out there.

On the gig front, we have an exciting set of shows lined up from March onwards, particularly one with our friends from New York city, ALUMINUM BABE, stopping in for a cup of tea and a noisy chat in Oxford with us and OFF THE RADAR (see Upcoming Shows for more detail). See the cool kids there. The Photo below is from our recent show at Oxford's Wheatsheaf (click on it to enlarge).

THANK YOU TO ALL AT THE SOLD OUT WHEATSHEAF SHOW We'd like to say a big "thank you" to everyone who came and enjoyed themselves at the show last night in The Wheatsheaf. We enjoyed ourselves very much and were glad to see so many of you there and invading our stage at times...Lawrence! Special thanks goes to everyone including Hayley and her family who weren't able to get in at the start of the evening due to eager, early punters, Mark Cope's new band NINE STONE COWBOY and POKEY's supporters packing the place out!!! Good work. Everyone got inside eventually and the show seemed to be enjoyed by all. To those who didn't get one of our free cds, you can actually download all the mp3 tracks we give out on cd at gigs in full and free from our mp3 page. We hope to see you all again soon. Cheers x

HAPPY NEW YEAR! A GIG RESCHEDULED AND A GIG CANCELLED Hello to you all. Christmas and New Year already seems so far away as the prospect of another busy year has already gripped us. We've been working steadily in the studio (yes, more) recording new songs all over December and early January which we will be playing live in February. They include JUNK FOOD, WEST END and HEART. The Wheatsheaf gig which was booked for the Saturday 5th February has been rescheduled for SATURDAY 26th FEBRUARY. We have also had to pull out of our gig at 93 Feet East in London, which was scheduled for the 21st February. Hopefully we'll be back in the big smoke soon.

08.12.04

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND WELCOME TO OUR DIARY The last few days have been spent finishing off our new three track demo cd which has been roughly 4 months in the making in total. We're quite happy about this to say the least! It didn't take us 4 months to just do three songs, there is a bit of new stuff too. The tracks chosen are DOG BITES MAN, I KNOW and WICHITA. The first two have been around for some time, but it's only recently we've got them sounding as we had envisaged. Gigs are in the process of being booked ready for late January with new songs appearing in the set. We'll keep you posted with information on this as we get it. We're hoping to get a media player section on here soon where you'll be able to watch video clips of us from the studio, gigs and general stuff. This may be a little while yet as we're yet to master that part of website publishing! Cheers, David and Noel.
