Flaunting a style that is unparalleled, Bigelf have forged a sound all their own: heavy pop rife with epic guitars, maniacal keyboards and rich, sophisticated harmonies laid over a foundation of hallucinatory hard rock. Working within their carefully constructed pop framework, they have injected a diabolical sound quality with quasi-psychedelic overtones, where demonic timbres are mingled with explosive experimental passages. Bigelf is a cutting edge, musical experience unlike anything else out there today.

Although they're based in L.A., the band have already blown open the European market where they've developed a fanatic following. Now the band is primed for an assault on America. And with bands like Wolfmother, Jet and The Mars Volta striking a nerve with young music fans, the time is right for these black-dressed long-haired prophets of doom.

Live, the band is completely over the top. Once a listener recovers from the initial shock of seeing how much equipment the band hauls onstage for a live performance, it's easy to understand how this Brit-pop-crazed quartet achieves its gargantuan sound. Fox's massive keyboard setup is strewn out in Baptist-chorus-sized proportions; his mighty C3 histrionics, majestic Mellotron soundscapes and lashes of fat modular synthesis meld with the heavy down-tuned Gibson guitars and mesmerizing solos supplied by Ace Mark. Froth's herculean drumming on his classic Hayman kit is underpinned by the propulsive basslines of Duffy Snowhill, thundering out of his princely Acoustic 360 cabinet. Their bludgeoning live performances boast theatrics reminiscent of rock shows from the 70s. The sonic alchemists of Bigelf are no newcomers to the now-trendy retro rock scene. They have their own identity firmly established through years of developing and modifying their own DNA into a powerful new kind of music in the tradition of the great rock acts from the past.
