[edit] History
Infadels were founded in 2003 by Alex Bruford (drums), Matt Gooderson (guitar, programming) and Bnann Watts (vocals) who were joined shortly afterwards by Dead at Thirty founder Richie Vermin (live keys) and bassist Wag Marshall-Page..
The band released two singles, "Leave Your Body" and "Can't Get Enough/Murder That Sound" on their own record label, Dead at Thirty before awards for Best Live Act and Best Dance Band at the 2004 Diesel-U-Music Awards sealed a move to Wall of Sound. Their song, "Can't Get Enough/Murder That Sound" was also used on the Sony Playstation game Gran Turismo 4, released in 2005. Also, a remix of "Can't get enough" appears on FIFA 07
Infadels have built up a reputation as one of the hardest working bands in the industry on account of the fact that they are almost constantly on tour, either on their own, or supporting the likes of Faithless, Prodigy and Hard Fi.
A new, Jagz Kooner produced cut of "Can't Get Enough", was released in January 2006 as the first single of debut album We Are Not the Infadels, which came out the same month. A second single, "Love Like Semtex", was released in June 2006.
The band has toured internationally, and is set to embark on a European tour in the Summer of 2006. [1]
