"I'm totally feeling 'em." – Liam Howlett Named after a track by legendary bluesman Howlin' Wolf, Killaflaw inhabit the electronic/rock interzone. They're from Liverpool, and consist of Benn Helm (vocals, guitar) and Andy Paton (electronics, trumpet). Killaflaw have been likened to a number of other acts – "like Led Zep meet the Chemical Brothers", "the missing link between Soundgarden and The Prodigy" – but really they have a sound that is uniquely their own. The electro-blues band's first track, 'Revolution', won Xfm's Demo Of The Year award, and then a low-key release of the 'Set Me On Fire' single organically spread around the world and topped the DMC charts in the US in 2010. It was played on BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music, NME Radio, Xfm London and many other independent stations, and the notorious Utah Saints produced a stunning dubsteppy remix of this track. There are now more than 100 home-made YouTube videos that use 'Set Me On Fire' as a soundbed – strong indication of its grass roots popularity. Killaflaw have played played at Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party, Beat Herder, Camden's Club NME Night at Koko and Club Remix at Proud in London (both twice), Brixton Jamm, Cargo, Notting Hill Arts Club and several of the UK's O2 Academys and Barflys, as well as several of the main venues in Liverpool. The have also performed showcases on MTV, BBC and Filter Magazine shows. In the summer of 2010 they were joined by former Pendulum and Apollo 440 drummer Paul Kodish for several festival shows, and their latest single 'Happy Daze' was released on Westway Records in April 2011. Gigging and recording all the time, Killaflaw produce everything from affecting electronic bangers ('Broken Idol', 'Holy Funk') to bluesy singalongs ('Message') to journeying rocky electronic MTV-friendly anthems ('Set Me On Fire', 'Higher Ground') to sync-friendly powerhouses ('Revolution'). As the UK's DJ magazine said: "Killaflaw have the passion, the soul, the raw power and the tunes. They're gonna be massive." ....Spread the word! Paste this code into your own MySpace.... .... ..

XFM Demo Of The Year 2008 with 'Revolution'

XFM Bomb Of The Year 2009 with 'Set Me On Fire'

DMC No. 1 in the US with 'Set Me On Fire'

Best of MySpace [March 2010] with 'Set Me On Fire'


Killaflaw consists of Benn Helm (vocals, guitar) and Andy Paton (keyboards, trumpet). In 2008, Killaflaw gained critical acclaim from BBC’s Tom Robinson, Kerrang!’s Emma Scott and XFM’s Eddy Temple-Morris. Temple-Morris stated that the band are “the missing link between Soundgarden and The Prodigy” and continues to vigorously support them. This was manifest when ‘Revolution’ won XFM’s Demo of the Year award for 2008. They also won an award with Liverpool’s Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) and were selected by Fran Healy of Travis to appear on the EP ‘Play. Stop. Rewind.’.

They have garnered praise from The Prodigy's Liam Howlett, who is a fan of the band and have also collaborated with Shunda K of Yo!Majesty, Losers, Ed Cosens of Reverend and the Makers amongst others. Killaflaw have gigged alongside the likes of Chase and Status, The Whip, Japanese Popstars, Losers, Alabama 3 and Phil Hartnoll of Orbital. The key festival performance of 2009 was The Secret Garden Party in July, which was described as one of the highlights of the event. The band successfully completed its first official UK tour in October 2009, including showcase MTV, BBC and Filter Magazine shows.

In November 2009, Killaflaw released Set Me On Fire on A Perfect Noise. It reached the number 1 spots in the US DMC Main Chart and House Chart and stayed there for several weeks. Techno legends Utah Saints also produced an exclusive remix of this track.

In 2010, Killaflaw played at several UK music festivals including Glastonbury and were joined by former Pendulum and Apollo 440 drummer Paul Kodish on temporary basis for several shows. Killaflaw continue to gig in some of London 's best venues including Camden 's Club NME Night at Koko and Club Remix at Proud. They have completed their debut album ‘Sleaze and Grit’ which Temple-Morris said on first listen: “file with the debuts of Prodigy, Oasis and Kasabian.” Dave Pemberton, who has worked with the likes of Faithless, Orbital, Prodigy and Kasabian provided mixing and additional production expertise on the album. In a recent interview in the UK’s DJ Magazine, they said: “Killaflaw have the passion, the soul, the raw power and the tunes. They’re gonna be massive”.

There are few acts worldwide that convincingly create and deliver such a crossover sound as Killaflaw and that can be evidenced by the makeup of their current fan base. Fans of everyone from Slayer through to Hot Chip find something in the sound that they can associate with and enjoy.
