  • Bio

    .... .. .... ........ ...... .. .. .. .. .... Grammatics formed around April 2006 in a terraced house basement just outside Leeds city centre. We soon found that we share many mutual loves...argument, doing things in the most difficult possible manner and general pretentiousness. We are all deluded with grandeur. We write songs faster than we can learn them, rarely repeat song sections without warping them into something different and attempt to utilise any instruments we can find regardless of quality or tone. Grammatics are a stylistically diverse band and like to hop though most of the genres related to indie-rock. Maybe we are stylistically incoherent. Maybe we are self-indulgent. Hopefully we will please the ears of those susceptible to that kind of nonsense. Maybe you'll like our music...we don't especially care if you don't, otherwise it would hurt…The danger’s where you care... .... ..Please click ..here.. to join the mailing list and receive a free download of New Franchise...... .... ..Management:....
