English band, "8 Month Malfunction" is the new project of Singer/Songwriter Ian Husbands (fREAK-1-C). 2005 saw Ian's life crumble before him with the loss of his fiancee, flat, 2 jobs and the final demise of fREAK-1-C. All that he seemed to have left was his guitar and Apple iBook, with which he travelled up and down England, writing songs wherever he found himself, from Devon to Yorkshire... But from these songs appeared a light at the end of what seemed a very long tunnel, as Producer Jo Webb and Electric Horse Songs Ltd. started taking an interest in the music that Ian had been writing. From there, life started to pick up and Ian spent days recording and finally signed a 3 song publishing deal with Electric Horse Songs Ltd.
That 3 song publishing deal has now formed the basis of 8 Month Malfunction's debut single 'Mourn' being released on August 21st '06 as a download through iTunes, Napster, Yahoo, Sony and many more sites, and the promo CDs being sent out to reviewers and radio stations are being well received. TotalRock.com and DeltaRadio.co.uk have already had the band live on air for interviews and live session and more and more people are joining the 'malfunction' daily... Below you can read what some reviewers have said about Ian and 8 Month Malfunction...
"...this song (Hurting) will surely hit big so I'll be definitely looking out for the album in stores. Keep up the good work! Two thumbs way up!"

"The principal driving force throughout this album, however, is frontman Ian Husbands. His grizzled voice elevates every track here. Eddie Vedder, Joe Cocker, Dick Valentine: there are shades of them all in those tonsils, but at the end of the day its a unique instrument which looks set to get better." (www.Overplay.com)
"Lyrically rich and powerful, 8MM delves deep into the fountain of knowledge to drink heartily from its depths...The outcome is a well structured hard rocking gem of a track which glistens and gleams like a new born star." (James Murray, www.monstapro.co.uk)
"If you want some quality songwriting, performances and production, then this is one unsigned band you should really give a few minutes of your time to, and if youre a record company looking for a new act to release, then 8MM should be seriously considered!" (James Farmer, UKBands.net)
"Mourn's unique, catchy groove is just what WGR's listeners
love ! We are proud to feature 8 Month Malfunction on the station." (Eve,
Wicked Grin Radio, www.wickedgrinradio.net)
"Yowsa! Invest the piffling sum of £1.58 and hear one of the best unsigned rock acts in the country. Somewhere between Audioslave and Pearl Jam, 8 Month Malfunction sound like the commercially-savvy rock band you'd expect to hear on MTV. Two powerful songs with thoughtful lyrics and slick production that would sound at home on any iPod. Buy it now and tell your friends you got in before the A&R men." (SchzredderPete, iTunes Customer Review)
