Heavy Metal band from Wakefield West Yorkshire with over a decade of gigs and music under their belts.

From the same small square of Northern Manchester that in recent years has produced bands like The Chameleons, Northside and more recently, The Slow Readers Club, Y-Key Operators are making 2017 the year to step out of the shadows.

The band's music is a reflection of the line up, with years of experience at the highest levels of the industry, a familiar Manchester sound with a millenial update. With nods to bands like New Order, Joy Division, The SexPistols, Stone Roses and Happy Mondays, the Y-Key Operators offer a powerful synth drive, with the twanging guitars, thudding basslines, frenetic drums and regional vocals fans of the Manchester sound will relate to.

Y-Key Operators have a reputation for filling great undiscovered venues across the city, but feel it's time to take the message and the music further.

Occasionally active not so psych musician who never plays gigs. Also, bassist in Gandhi’s Hands.

New EP The Late Hour will be out on Dismembers Club 09/12/22

Previous Album Portmanteau also available on Bandcamp

Soundblab - "This album has sonic color to burn. It’s intense, and it is lovely. A record that searches the cosmos for the deep depth of our own humanity. 9/10" 

Emerging Indie Bands - “...exploring insecurities and anxieties, with a deft skill, as, rather than leaving the listener raked with inner turmoil, the mind finds a quiet pleasure in the what could easily have become a journey of despair.” 

Videostatic - "a darker, more bewitching exploration into inner-city disillusionment" 

Songs featured on BBC Introducing Leeds, Nice Clean Quiet, MindDaze, Birthday Cake for Breakfast, Psychedelic Baby Magazine, Atom Heart Mutha, Earth Calling and Aural Delights.

Makes music that educates, entertains and empowers the listener.
Thank you for listening.

Known for their blasts of stomping fuzzed-up indie guitar, savage riffs and hook-heavy choruses; Yorkshire’s FloodHounds deliver tight rabble-rousing live shows; bursting with startlingly jagged guitar, driving bass and wild rhythmic drums. Lyrically catchy, the Indie rock trio’s powerful punk-infused and darkly melodic tunes, stay with you long after the gig. 

FloodHounds latest new single  ‘Black & Blue’ is a frenetic punk tempest of a tune, and the swaggering leviathan of monstrously heavy riffs. Already recorded, their next single, ‘Own Worst Enemy’ will be out later this year accompanied by a swathe of gigs across the UK.

FloodHounds recent singles have all scored numerous track of the week spots, repeat spins on BBCintroducing and even editorial playlists Apple Music's All New Rock and Amazon’s Breakthrough Rock.

2025 began with the release of an animated video for 'Near-Life Experience' by VFX artist Grainfreeze (Oasis, Noel Gallagher). This followed the surreal experience of a Japanese film crew independently creating their own music video for 'Quicksand’. Other recent highlights for the band include being shortlisted for Kerrang/Marshall Records competition for a slot at Download Festival. The band received encouraging songwriting advice from Noel Gallagher to ramp up the attitude, which paid off when that spirit was channeled into their fiery single ‘One Horse Race’ which immediately leapfrogged previous singles streaming numbers on release. 

Floodhounds have played live all over the UK, playing sets on the festival circuit at Isle Of Wight Festival, Brighton Great Escape, Liverpool Sound City, Live at Leeds and Tramlines fringe, as well as played sold out support slots with the likes of Kid Kapichi, The Blinders, PINS, Projector, King Nun, Strange Bones & Calva Louise. The band have also ventured abroad to play in Paris twice at the iconic Parisian venues Supersonic and Le Truskel.
