   About Battle A Dinosaur

  Punching above their weight since 2008, Battle a Dinosaur is a five-piece rock band from Edinburgh, Scotland. Inspired by the simple things in life: Video games, eighties cartoons, pop culture, that Youtube video where the cat tries to jump over the baby fence and fails (Yeah you saw that, you totally did...), we create fun, no nonsense music and have a laugh doing it too.

Much like inspirational musical genius of our generation Kanye West, we don't stick to one genre, infact, we're notoriously hard to pin down. From metal, punk, tech, nu-metal (sorry, we're really, really sorry), we've done it all and more. Give our tracks a whirl, we're sure there's something in there that takes your fancy. don;t be nervous, dig in!

We are always on the look out for new shows to play near or far, so if you need a slot filled, or want a show in Edinburgh, we can do you a nice wee gig swap. Just give us a shout in the comment box or in a message and we'll get back to you. We WILL reply and wont spam your comment feed with HTML gig flyers and other crap that makes your profile look fatter than Susan Boyle. Promise.

So that's it, have a browse around our site and if you're feeling extra lovely, leave us something to read in the comment box.

Thanks,

Battle a Dinosaur

Andy, Col, Dave, Gav & Ritchie
