About

Sounds Like: Bat For Lashes, Kate Nash, Foals, Metronomy, Friendly Fires

Bio: The smoldering vocals and soaring snyths from Frankie with the quick-fingered multi-instrumentalist Chris creates this rather interesting intermingling of electronic influences. Both with bags of contrasting eccentricities they battle it out to be the bigger presence yet their melodies fold toget... See Full Bio

“It’s electro/indie crossover in the style of CSS or Yeah Yeah Yeahs. At the moodier end of the spectrum is ‘Sugarcane’ which swirls triumphantly through its brief lifespan while ‘Laidback’ is much poppier. Front woman Frankie Murdoch gets all the plaudits but she’s underpinned by some pretty slick production and performances from fellow band members. They ‘ve just played T in the Park so they will also now be skilled in the art of performing while have a constant rain of Tenant’s Pilsner raining down on them. Always useful. 8/10”

— Tasty Fanzine

"Singer Frankie displays a wild-child persona which is brilliantly bonkers in a very English way."

— Artrocker

“Arp Attack are certain to be a sure fire hit with any festival goers who like to party on down into the night.”

— http://unrealityshout.com

“Compared to the likes of Delphic and Friendly Fires (and with a hint of The Killers circa 2005), they’re more upbeat and optimistic than the former two bands whilst at the same time fusing some killer guitar solos over waves of synthetic beats. Singer Frankie’s voice is lush and easily recognisable in the same vein as Katie White’s from The Ting Tings and Lovefoxxx from CSS. Arp Attack don’t fall into the same trite category as other electro-indie bands who have come and gone, leaving us with nothing more than 11 failed attempts at this whole “music” thing. No, Arp Attack actually deliver, in a big way, not only with one good song but with four of the four that I’ve heard.”

“A fantastically hooky piece of quirky electro pop that never fails to get my head bobbing up and down in a fashion that's unseemly for a man of my age”

— Phil Jackson at BBC South Live

"Colourful hyperactivity"

— MintSouth

“Slick and energetic”

— Xan Phillips

“Elements of The Postal Service with The Cooper Temple Clause delivered with the kind of rich vocal we would normally associate normally as the exclusive preserve of Rubicks and New Young Pony Club.”

— No Fiction

“ Inviting like Friendly Fires, sexy as Metric, distinct as Guillemots, and yet savvier than the average band cause they can generate a unique sound. ”

— Slow Dive Blog

“Theirs is a sound that blends the joys of indie rock and throws in some Fisher-Price synths for good measure that add up to songs that are pure saccharine to the ears. Stylistically the band reminds me a bit of another too-cute for words electronic pop band that went by the wayside in Bis. These are the kinds of band that indie kids simply can’t help but love because of their “blink and you’ll miss it” hooks that once enjoyed, you really can’t help but fall in love.”

— Billy Suede
