Get Me Out Of Here by The Prostitutes

"

Woody Allen in Sleeper

Soon, they record their first EP with 4 tracks and put it up on Myspace for sharing. On the Czech site bandzone.cz, they become the most visited band after a few weeks, a position to be held for months and months on end It is only after their third gig that they receive the accolades of the music press (Filter magazine), comparing their energy to that of the first concerts of Sex Pistols and Joy Division.

The Prostitutes naturally form a platform of supporters, be it graphics, animators, movie-makers or web designers, who are willing to help promote the success of the band. When the band is phoned up to come for an appearance on music TV Óko, they produce two music videos for their tracks overnight to be broadcasted until they can be replaced with professionally produced videos (animated Shes a Monster spends a number of weeks in the Óko chart, clip for Sunshine was released in August 2006).

The band does it all: rehearsing every spare minute, going round clubs all over Czech Republic, posting up the posters on dark wintry nights (these are now collectable items amongst the fans, being known for their exceptional visual impact).

They use every opportunity to provide their tracks for free download and sharing.

Each of the press reviews, be it a CD or a gig, is known to set off a fervid love-and-hate discussion on anything from the age and occupation of the band members, to their musical instruments and invention - amongst the bands fans and the bands adversaries, turning The Prostitutes into a true social phenomena.
