UNITED - "THE BEST UNSIGNED BAND IN THE WORLD"

The quote belongs to Stefan Olsdal of Placebo, a big fan of United after seeing them supporting his own band and later on listening to the forthcoming United album - Slick.

The band first started out in Stockholm back in 2002 assembling five individuals sharing a similar taste of music even though they came from different places and backgrounds. If forced to drop some references they would probably mutter U2, The Clash, The Chameleons, Joy Division and maybe even PiL.

After spending quite some time in their self-made studio recording 20-30 songs and sketches, a friend of Stefan Olsdal sent a copy to him asking, more or less for fun, if Placebo needed a supporting band in Scandinavia? Stefan called back the next day offering United two dates as supporting band in Oslo and in Copenhagen.

Back home, having no properly recorded material, United decided to record and release a four-track vinyl EP called "Friends Unknown" at Vesper Records. The EP spawned great reviews and resulted in another slot as opening act to Placebo. This time at a sold out Brixton Academy in London. United also played a couple of selected gigs in Sweden while focusing on finishing the recording of the debut album.

United has had quite some airplay on Polish radio and is now featured on a Polish Universal Music compilation album. Among other acts are The Charlatans, PJ Harvey and The Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

The debut album Slick was released in February 2005 in Sweden. It is recorded and produced by Pierre Carnbrant (the Caesars among others), mixed by Carl-Michael Herlöfsson (Rammstein, Baxter, Weeping Willows and many more).

The band will also be featured on another compilation album in French magazine Rocksound. The songs are chosen favourites by Placebo. Date of release, Spring 2005.

United is a band with great musical visions and an ever-growing following of fans. Thanks to the Internet and their website the band now has a steady stream of fans from the US, Sweden, France, Poland, Germany, UK as well as Australia and Mexico. Check it out at www.united-band.com.
