“A debut album that fires on all cylinders.” – Q

“Channelling Marc Bolan, Led Zeppelin and Arctic Monkeys to riveting effect.” – The Sunday Times

Straddle early-60s Merseybeat, blues rock, Krautrock and Velvets fuzz-fuckery while throwing in modernist electro twists. A radical reimagining of the pre-Beatles age.” – NME

“Could be the soundtrack to a pulp horror movie… A lot of fun.” – The Evening Standard

The Bohicas are rock and roll painted in vivid primary colors. Hi def, loud, fast, shiny and above all fun. A barrage of killer hooks, razor blade riffs and choruses that slap you in the face, grab your hand and lead you onto the dance floor. All shot through with pulp imagery torn from the pages of a graphic novel. In the UK they've quickly built a reputation on the back of a series of singles introducing their melodic, snarling guitar pop. The Bohicas release their anticipated debut album The Making Of on August 21st on Domino.

The Making Of lands blow after blow. Featuring early singles XXX and Swarm<http://po.st/XXXSwarm>, alongside Radio 1 playlisted To Die For<http://po.st/ToDieFor> and Where You At<http://po.st/WhereYouAt>, the album is two barrels' worth of electrifying tunes and crackling 21st Century rock and roll.

The Making Of was produced by Mark Rankin (Queens Of The Stone Age, Bombay Bicycle Club), Chris ‘Merrick’ Hughes (Tears For Fears, Adam And The Ants) and Oli Bayston (Toy, Boxed In) and recorded at The Fish Factory and The Gun Factory in London and Ashley Manor, Wiltshire.

The Bohicas are Dominic McGuinness, drummer Brendan Heaney, guitarist Dominic John and bassist Adrian Acolatse.  The Bohicas’ story began in Essex where, as schoolmates, McGuinness, Heaney and John first came together over a love of The Beatles, The Kinks, Ray Charles and the new wave of guitar bands who emerged at the start of the century after the scrag ends of Britpop had finally limped off.

The Making Of will be available on CD, vinyl and digitally. In addition, the album will also be released in two special formats - the Deluxe Edition will feature a bonus 7” single featuring “In The Mood” and “Rewind Replay”, and will be available from Domino Mart<http://po.st/MakingOfDM> and select indies. The same two tracks will also feature on the iTunes<http://po.st/MakingOfDL> Bonus Track Edition.

The album’s artwork was created by illustrator TomerHanuka<http://thanuka.com/>. “The immediacy and impact of Tomer's style marries perfectly to how we want our music to sound,” explains McGuinness. “The subject of most of the songs is a boy longing for a girl. We thought the cover should be inviting and dangerous so we asked Tomer to draw someone who is about to fuck off into the future and this is your chance to join her.”
