Profile:Blue October UK returns with their eagerly awaited 4th album. This pioneering British band presents a unique, eclectic mix of electronics and acoustics, hurtling them into the 22nd century. Flashes of yesterday, today and tomorrow tenderly wrapped in every emotion to startle the senses. Real songs brimming with passion, angst and sadness. The band blends their loved and revered trademark sounds with the highest standard of musicianship and sound production. Lose yourself in memories. Think. Reminisce. Dream.......let Blue October UK touch your very heart, mind and soul. Come on, take a Walk Amongst the Living.

Blue October play emotionally fuelled, synth electro pop. Fusing electronic wizardry and wild guitar with cool, underlying dance grooves. A diverse repertoire of songs charged with melody, harmony and rhythm. Deep, meaningful lyrics tinged with sadness, but always full of hope. Songwriting of the highest quality stands out like a warning beacon in the roughest of oceans.

Signed to A Different Drum ( USA ). Four full length albums under their belt and inclusions on several compilations have attracted fans from every corner of the globe who have fallen in love with their unique style of incandescent, constantly evolving, dream pop. Contrasting sonics and dynamics, galvanised with tunes from heaven produce a live set riddled with edge and aggression.
