Electrelane are a band from Brighton, England. They were formed in 1998 by Verity Susman and Emma Gaze, and are currently comprised of Susman, Gaze, Mia Clarke, and Ros Murray. Their music draws from wide range of influences including Neu!, Sonic Youth, Stereolab, and The Velvet Underground.

With mere hours to go before the sand runs out of that biggest hour glass of them all - 2007 - I have looked back over the past twelve months to appraise which artists or songs or releases or CDs or songs meant the most to me. And frankly I don't think I listened to anything at all released in 2007. However I was just listening to WFMU , and was thoroughly charmed by this tune by the four-woman-band Electrelane. I don't recall seeing them on... MORE

Recently Electrelane announce they are on "Indefinite Hiatus". One needs to look at My Bloody Valentine or Portishead to see that it could be a long while before we hear something new from them. It's a limbo that no fan of any band wants to hear - especially one that never got to see that perform live.
The Brighton based female four-piece could best be described as ethereal shoegazing pop.
This is their final video, a song called Berlin. And if they are dead, they have left... MORE

Lucky me. I caught Electrelane last night which was also my first all female line-up in a long time. Seeing how there are quite a few fans here on mog and the recent announcement that the band would be on indefinite hiatus after this tour, I wanted to share the experience.
The Venue
Normally the renovated factory, Le Transbordeur has a bar area separated from the main stage. The attendance was smaller last night but enthusiastic so the curtained off main room was perfec... MORE

i got some bad news. i just heard that electrelane, one of my favorite bands is about to take an indefinite hiatus.
"we have decided that the upcoming gigs will be our last for the foreseeable future" says their myspace page, so if you live in europe, please, see them for me.
it hurts when beloved bands break. can't they just stay together? maybe if i stomp strong and clap like a fool they'll come back on?

This is a wistful, melancholy song from these all-girl rock/pop group from... where? I think they're English? I don't know. Regardless, they are good and this is probably their best album so far. Big variety in the songs, from lovely songs like this to longer instrumental electro-rock jams. It didn't really stick out for me when I first listened to it, but I came back to it a couple of weeks ago and realized I quite like it.... MORE

I love everything about this track. The sensual groove and bass, the choir... the harmonies and melody... I can listen to this on my iPod on the bus, shut my eyes and be somewhere completely different in my imagination. I'm Electrelaning up as am going to see them at Koko in a couple weeks. Yay to me for having foresight to book tickets during a recent bout of poverty and depression, as understand it's sold out. Although sadly, doubt they will perform this track as ima... MORE

English band Electrelane was asked to support Arcade Fire on a limited stretch of their American tour. The ladies from Brighton announced recently their plans to release their 6th album, No Shouts, No Calls on April 30. With this development and all the buzz around Arcade Fire, it's nearly certain this will hone in more attention that they originally planned with their North American tour.
AF/Electrelane confirmed dates:
Chicago, IL Chicago Theatre (May 19, 20)

The new Electrelane single "To The East" is quite good, tinny, tinkering, ragged and fun. Led by high pitched female coos, it's pop with an edgy backbeat. I like it.
Check it out.
The UK quartet's new album, No Shouts, No Calls will be out on the Matador imprint Too Pure May 8.... MORE

This is a great instrumental band...amazing live. The fact that electrelane is an all female ensemble is a plus. If you've never heard of them, I suggest you listen to them now. The power out is a great album. Best played loud.
