MIKE TV乐队介绍

主唱/贝司：Domb Thumb
吉他/和声：Pickled Jhon
吉他/和声：Rich Bushby
鼓手/和声：Riff Reynolds
来自英国沃尔夫汉普顿的MIKE TV，是目前英国最受欢迎的流行朋克乐队（注意，不是之一）。充满活力的现场演出、90年代GREEN DAY式的爽劲曲风、朗朗上口的动听和声都成为MIKE TV的重要标签。
MIKE TV乐队前身为三人阵容的PICKLED DICK，乐队于2003年成立，之后发表了一张专辑《Panda-moanium》和一张EP《Exercise Your Demons》。在2007年年底乐队正式更名为MIKE TV之后，乐队吸纳了一位新成员，并开始了近乎疯狂的巡演。与他们一同巡演的乐队包括Fat Wreck Chords旗下全明星乐队Me First and the Gimme Gimmes、Useless ID、the Dickies、Army of Freshmen、Guttermouth等等。2008年，乐队发表了首张同名专辑《MIKE TV》，这张专辑得到了全球知名朋克网站PunkNews的四星评价。MIKE TV擅长的是GREEN DAY早期的风格，如果你喜欢《Dookie》和《Nimrod》时期的GREEN DAY，那你一定会爱MIKE TV。
2009年4月，MIKE TV应内地独立厂牌火锅音乐的邀请，将展开首次中国巡演，而乐队的首张同名专辑也将由火锅音乐在中国内地代理发行。

以下是诸多媒体对MIKE TV的评论：
专辑评论
"So charismatically chirpy is their power-pop assault that even songs about alcoholism or prison still have an infectious glee about them – It's a brilliant wake-up call." - Rock Sound magazine
"The simple facts are that Mike TV are the best pop-punk band in the UK right now and this is one of the best UK releases of the year." - Punktastic.com
"Impossibly infectious and lyrically impressive." - Big Cheese Magazine
"Mike TV have made an impressive comeback here. Instead of merely picking up where their wacky former selves left off, they have returned to transcend themselves into an infinitely superior league to their former incarnation." - Punkornothing.com
"Mike TV is a band you should definitely check out - they stand out from the pack with this quality fun release. Good times guaranteed." – Punknews.org
"It's refreshing to hear a band singing about what makes them tick - Mike TV are always a lot of fun, but their outgoing nature isn't a veneer to disguise any lack of material or talent; they've got it all." - The Mag
"Mike TV have clearly been listening to the Beach Boys, which results in songs you can't get out of your head after listening to them just once." – Up Magazine (NL)
现场演出评论
"Mike TV's first London gig since ditching the Pickled Dick name and it goes brilliantly. Managing to get the most movement of the night they seem to go down a treat, especially when dropping old Pickled Dick songs in; I'm left thinking I should have put aside my hatred for the Pickled Dick name a long time ago." - Punktastic.com
"Mike TV are England's answer to Green Day, pop punk is alive and well." - Big Cheese Magazine
"Mike TV took the crowd up a level with a performance which never fails to engage. This band has huge charisma, guitarist Jhon spends as much time off stage as on and they're loads of fun. Great tunes in a Green Day mould, they should be huge, take the chance to see them while you still can in venues like this one. They're a fantastic band and you'll have a brilliant time." – Sandman Magazine
"You know when you see a great band when you don't know the songs but somehow intuitively find yourself singing along - and Mike TV are a great band."– Punkscene.co.uk
Hailing from the hamlets of East Hampshire and suburbs of Wolverhampton, MIKE TV have recently been very busy indeed. So far 2008 has seen a name change, a new member, a brand new 13-track album and a positively plethoric attitude towards live performances - all without losing their trademark, harmony-laden punk rock sound. After just completing a mammoth 27 date UK tour with Yorkshire ska-metallers RANDOM HAND throughout October and a successful tour in The Netherlands and Belgium in November, Mike TV will next be supporting US punk legends GUTTERMOUTH on their December UK tour.
This year has also seen them tour with such bands as LA legends THE DICKIES, Californias ARMY OF FRESHMEN, Philadelphias ZOLOF THE ROCK AND ROLL DESTROYER, USELESS ID from Israel, as well as performing alongside stalwarts of the UK punk rock scene – THE KING BLUES and SONIC BOOM SIX.
Their brand new, self titled album produced and recorded by underground super-producer Peter Miles (The King Blues / Sonic Boom Six / Tonight Is Goodbye) is out now in the UK on Banquet Records of Kingston and soon to be released internationally.

Pickled Dick history:
The band (Mike TV used to be called Pickled Dick) have previously recorded fourteen track debut album 'Panda-moanium' (2005) and a follow-up six track E.P. 'Exercise Your Demons' (2006). Both discs were independently released under the name Pickled Dick, through their own label Don't Rush Me Records.
They played over 600 shows in the UK and mainland Europe since their formation in 2000, without the help of any major or independent record label. They performed at Guilfest and 'Wasted/Rebellion' Festivals held in Blackpool Winter Gardens and Amsterdam's prestigious Melkweg venue. They also toured with Sonic Boom Six, Howards Alias, Jesse James, Adequate Seven, The Fight and supported Me First and the Gimme Gimmes on their UK tour in mid 2007, playing such venues as London's Kentish Town Forum and Carling Academy's in Birmingham and Newcastle. The band then followed all that up with a headline UK tour in late 2007, including topping the bill at Camden Underworld. They played with everyone from Gallows to Elliot Minor. They also won the Jagermeister 'National songwriting competition' in 2007. Their track is used to promote the Jagermeister advertising campaign.
"Many of their songs are very intricate and longish, to the point where I described them as "bloody rock operas", but with their three-part harmonies and stop-on-a-dime changes, they're also incredibly catchy. Pickled Dick get my vote as one of England's better pop-punk bands today."
- Larry Livermore, founder of Lookout Records (Green Day).
