Formed in 1999 by Dough (electro voice , guitar and programming) and Andy Head (electro guitar), Blue Velvet started working on their music inspired by the sounds of N.I.N., Ministry and Einsturzende Neubauten. Few years later Malcom11 (bass and programming)and DarkendDawn (drum and electronic drum) joined in and the band started to work on their first full length "The third" which has been released by Koldfinger in 2006. The album showed the band's skill into creating good industrial electronic music where energy and melody blend. The new album ROTATION is a natural consequence of the previous one as it contains remixed version (I might say re-worked versions as the new tracks aren't composed looping few few parts of the old ones) of the old tracks which on this album find a new life. If tracks like "I wanna be like him" or "Manipulated soul"
on "The third" were sounding like good electro industrial tunes, now they seems have been filtered through a cyber industrial device that added more influences (a bit of techno, a bit of break beat). The nine tracks of ROTATION sound rich, distorted and futuristic without losing their primitive spark. Check some tracks at the band's myspace. They deserve it...
