The SoundEx

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TheSoundEx, also known as "The Sound Explosion" are a self-proclaimed Rock n' Soul band from Newcastle upon Tyne, England.

Their self titled debut album was released in March 2005 on the Durham based inde label Captains of Industry. When they were all 20, The Soundex co-headlined The Nokia New School of Rock Tour with The Answer and The Tokyo Dragons. The band have also toured with The Datsuns, Hell Is for Heroes, The Mooney Suzuki, International Noise Conspiracy, Million Dead, The 5678's and Terrorvision.

Early 2005 brought a headline tour, a pilgrimage to Dublin, a brainstorming session with Gordon Raphael who recorded the B-side to Apollo entitled Let It Turn Inside Itself), lots of positive reviews from the press and a nasty bite from the NME. After releasing their debut single "Apollo" in November, the band signed to Red Ink, Sony in January, and completed recording their second album with Paul Reeve in October. After the dissolution of "Red Ink" The Sound Ex signed with an international independent label with links in the north-east of England. This album "Palomino" is to be released by demolition on 22 September 2008.
