Biography

There’s something steady but explosive about London's The Big Pink. The band has compressed 50 years of loveless and lovelorn rock and roll into a sometimes unsettled but frequently tender circle. They’re a truly modern  pop group - seamlessly, the band melds folkish and warm... Read More

"Anyone can build a wall of sound, but only a special class of shoegazer can make the layers of fuzz and distortion coalesce into a real song. On their debut LP, London duo The Big Pink... nail the balance between gloomy, monolithic drone and songcraft." Rolling Stone

"...the only roots to be found on this debut are fuzzed-out greats like Spiritualized and My Bloody Valentine. This electro-rock duo makes its forbearers proud, enveloping ambling meditations on romance in magnificent, wafting walls of sound" Nylon

"As you can guess from that score up there, A Brief History of Love is way better than it needed to be, a bracing and beat-driven debut..." 
Pitchfork {8.2}

"Like Einstrzende Neubauten if they really wanted to get on the radio to impress a girl instead of confuse and scare people." The Fader

The MP3 for "Too Young To Love" is available here:
