‘If Kim Deal and Thom Yorke had a baby it would sound like actionforce’ – RAWK magazine
Leicester natives actionforce use homemade beats & samples, laptronica and synths mixed with guitars and live drums to make post-shoegaze/ electronic/ indie epics that are delivered with fervor and candor. With a set that ranges from dense, anthemic shoegaze to hip-hop infused electro-pop, dark counter rhythmic guitar workouts combine with fuzzy synthetics and massive drum loops to create the definitive AF sound.
Following successful dates at Club Fandango and DeathDisco and support slots with Howling Bells, Napoleon IIIrd and White Rose Movement, actionforce recently embarked on a triumphant 16 date UK tour playing shows with Oppenheimer, The Race, Kid Carpet and Elle Milano to name the best ones, as well as being handpicked to open up for Fierce Panda’s My Architects for their homecoming gig.
Debut single, Got Got Need, is out now on Ltd Edition 7" (Isn’t Anything Records); coupled with a distribution deal with Post Everything.
‘Under the wall of beats and noise, we can listen to some ethereal and melodic pieces, making the songs of Actionforce all big, ambitious and beautiful. For fans of Flaming Lips, Beck and Teenage Fanclub’ - Goonite
