Praise for debut single “We Are All Going To Die”
“The big rock banger you’ve been waiting for.”
Emerging Artist Of The Week – NME
“an amazing band, I really like this.”
Dan P Carter – Radio 1 Rock Show
“Big, heart-on-sleeve guitar-rock with a go-for-broke anthemic intensity.”
Stereogum
“Full of huge, lung-busting, shouting-into-the-wind vocals and relentless drums, guitars and everything else.”
DIY
“A relentless soundscape of drums and guitars, owing its all-encompassing musicianship to shoegaze that is underpinned by a distinctly emo heart.”
The Line of Best Fit
“A roller coaster ride of rollicking riffs, descending and ascending with a luminous fury and friskiness, before delivering us back home again safe and sound, but breathless.”
The 405 – Track Of The Day
“Guitars drill down at all angles, while the pummelling percussion sounds like a cement mixer trying to chew up a steel beam.”
CLASH
“We Are All Going To Die is a lot more fun than it sounds.”
DORK
“These four minutes could be the start of something very special.”
The i Playlist
“Harnessing the sun-kissed escapism of road-trip-rock acts like Japandroids and Cloud Nothings, their pessimistic streak is cast aside be searing riffs and an urgency most lo-fi groups could do well to glen from.”
AnotherMan
“Excellent… with a noise-pop twist.”
New & Notable – Bandcamp
“An instantly glorious unravelling, it solidifies the band’s burgeoning reputation.” – Gold Flake Paint

After a rapturous response to their first singles “We Are All Going To Die” and “Distant Star” – which saw the band sit at no.1 as Hype Machine’s most blogged about artist in the world for nearly a week – and having packed out two shows at by:Larm earlier this year, Oslo power-trio Spielbergs finally arrive for their first ever UK show at Birthdays, London, on April 24.

Spielbergs’ debut EP “Distant Star” will be released on April 27 worldwide through By The Time It Gets Dark on CD and download, and as an extremely limited edition blue and gold glitter cassette.
