about

The Flesh roots date back to October 2001, and included members Nathan Halpern, the founding lead singer, original bass player Jason Binnick, along with percussionist Greg Rogove and the feminine synth stylings and backing vocals of Gabriella Zappia. Together they claim The Neptunes, Scott Walker, Kim Gordon, Nina Simone, Johnny Cash, Howie, The Stooges and Nick Cave’s Birthday Party as inspirations and influences of The Flesh sound. With this eclectic mix their sound is hard to pin down into one genre, though their music has been labeled “disco-punk,” “lo-fi punk” and described as fusing R&B dance beats with dark rock and roll to deliver gyrating pop anthems. Their debut EP, Death Connection, released in the midst of a NYC buzz about the band, has been greeted with rave reviews nationally.

“Somewhere in between the sleek production of the Rapture and Radio 4 and the all out mania of Electric 6, lies The Flesh. Deliciously lo-fi and extremely danceable, this band makes rock music with unbridled sensuality. They even make the organ sound sexy. There’s a dark undercurrent though, a slightly gothic leaning if you will. In fact, it is quite possible that the Flesh is the illegitimate love child of Robert Smith and glam era Bowie, and though I’m sure the band members will cringe at the application of any label, THIS is disco punk.” Filter Magazine
