The Big Pink are an electro rock duo which formed in 2007 in London, England. The group consists of Robbie Furze (vocals, guitar) and Milo Cordell (keyboards, synths, vocals). They are best known for their 2009 single “Dominos”, which peaked at #29 on the UK Singles Chart.
This London duo use gritty beats, droning guitars, abstract effects and dreamy vocals to create a soundscape that is arty yet tuneful. They have previously supported TV on the Radio, Florence & The Machine, Crystal Castles and Klaxons.
Milo Cordell is son of 1960s pop producer Denny and runs the Merok label, which has released cutting-edge dance acts Klaxons and Crystal Castles. Robbie Furze is a former guitarist with electro-punk singer Alec Empire and is also a founding member of the band Panic DHH.
To date they have released three singles - Too Young To Love/Crystal Visions (House Anxiety), Velvet and Stop The World (4AD). Their debut album “A Brief History of Love” was recorded at the Electric Ladyland Studios in New York and was released in the UK on the 14th of September 2009.
The Big Pink recently supported Muse on the UK leg of The Resistance Tour.

I thought they were good. How can you say they were dull when they put that much energy into their performance? If you listen to them with that idea already in your head then you aren't going to enjoy it simple as. An open mind can only benefit you.

Dull.. i suppose that's the only word to sum them up. I did kinda feel bad for them at the muse concert on the 10th though because we were all just standing there, not even swaying or anything, then one of the guys announces it's the other guys birthday :/ the only song the crowd got moderately interested in was Dominos because we all knew it.
