Vendetta Valentine
www.myspace.com/vendettavalentine
BIOGRAPHYVendetta Valentine formed in February 2006 as a musical and artistic collaboration between Thomas M (vocals), D Powell (Lead Guitar, Drum Machines), and Anna Judd (Keyboards, Artwork).
The band blends the guitar crunch of indie rock, the synthesizer feel of electro pop, and punk lyrics to create their highly praised and original sound.
September 2006 KROQ Los Angeles picked Vendetta Valentine as one of the top 10 unsigned bands in Southern California, out of more than 2,600 entries, and put their song "Let It Burn" into current rotation. Tune into Locals Only with Kat Corbett on Sunday nights!
Vendetta Valentine has sold across the U.S, the U.K., Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, and Italy. The band records, engineers, and produces all the music on their own.
The drawings of Anna Judd feature her original character Ms. Vendetta in a number of provocative Valentine gone wrong and other scenarios that have captured the imagination of indie kids and adults alike.
You would probably enjoy Vendetta Valentine if you enjoy the music of The Killers, Modest Mouse, The Pixies, The Sex Pistols, Nirvana, The Cure, and She Wants Revenge. Other influences include Fight Club, and V for Vendetta.
