Much in the manner a devotional feline will proudly massacre vermin, leaving it's sacrificial remains to fetter your hallway carpet, we bring you Madonnatron. In the space of about 18 months they went from not knowing how to play their instruments to knowing how to play them slightly better (in between doing full time jobs and having babies) and during this time ended up supporting The Moonlandingz on their Autumn 2016 tour, touring with Trashmouth Records and label mates Meatraffle across the UK at the end of 2016, and doing two live sessions for Marc Riley on BBC6. They also played two sold out shows during Independent Venue Week this January - one at the Windmill, Brixton, and the other with The Moonlandingz at Hebden Bridge Trades Club.
Now with a new line up, their first two singles ‘Headless Children’ & 'Tron' have received extensive radio play on BBC6 music via Marc Riley, Gideon Coe & Tom Ravenscroft. They played a successful slot at the Republic of Music's show at the Great Escape Festival this year and will play the Rising Stage at the Green Man Festival in August.
With their eponymously titled debut album due for release on vinyl & digital format on the 28th July, they launch it at the Windmill, Brixton on 29th July.
More shows across the UK to be announced and they are set to tour in early 2018.
"If Madonnatron was an amplifier, it would be a mutha of a Krell beater, a class A with plenty of power in reserve. Better than Led Zeppelin " - Zsa Zsa Sapien of Meatraffle
"We are not going to make you a sandwich, motherfuckers" - Madonnatron
