  • Bio

    .. When THE PRiMMS landed in New York, it seemed absurd at the time but they had no more than a few ideas in their heads and $317.68 between them. With no idea where they would stay and with no idea on how to sustain themselves the future began to look bleaker than the weather. It was probably these circumstances that provided the catalyst that fuelled the Primms. The only solace found would be when they spent the precious hours together playing and writing. Existing in such an isolating metropolis meant that the hardness experienced in their everyday lives poured into the music that they were creating. ...... This, shared with the optimism and vulnerability (a seemingly English peculiarity)produces THE PRiMMS unique fusion of the hard and the soft, the ugly and the beautiful, and the familiar with the unfamiliar. Although the Primms have been playing together since 2001, it's only been since their arrival in New York and the subsequent beatings, robberies and damaging encounters that they feel that they are really alive and achieving the thing they desire most: Sincerity and reality in the music they are making.. .... +++++++++++++++++++ ....

    Shhhhh......
  • Sounds Like

    we can't answer that..... ................ What others say:.... GOTHAMIST Band Of The Week (7/5/06) .... The Primms manage to mix a handful of influences together without ever sounding derivative. The urgency and building intensity of the songs seem to reach near-epic levels at points, and it's refreshing to hear someone who doesn't hold back in creating a unique brand of music. This is the type of band that is made to perform live, never settling as background music and always insisting on the attention of the audience throughout the set." --Gothamist.com ...... Crashin'In .... "This new UK band did the unthinkable and moved their whole operation to NYC. It makes you wonder why, when most NYC bands dream of being able to tour the UK. But as most other people can tell you, NYC truly is the best city in the world. Now that these four boys live in NYC, their dark and epic sound fits the city's landscape. Fans of Muse, Interpol, and early Radiohead ("The Bends") will not be able to stop listening to these early songs. So catch them now before everyone knows about our new little secret band." -Crashin'In ...... NME .... "The Primms, rocking a boozy, Muse-y racket from a world before the new rock revolution, if such a world can be imagined" NME ...... Drowned In Sound .... "The PRiMMS know what they like. They like their music to sound like where theyre from This little world of ours needs the PRiMMS." (4 out of 5 stars) Drowned In Sound ...... BP Fallon .... "And downstairs in the basement mixing up the medicine young English band The Primms - who, good God, hail from Crawley, much to the delight of Kate [Moss] who was born a few miles away in Croydon - they came on stage and killed. Just great." - BP Fallon

    Dear music supervisor,
    My name is dB Heard CEO of Not Only Street Records!

    NOSR represents a complete roster of independent recording artist through the entire world.

    At this this time I'd like to extend our introduction to:



    New Release:
    I Know Now & Drop Hit,s and Evrybodies Darling
    on
    Not Only Street Records

    The native-born Jamaican Marvin Anthony Burnett aka Sledgy was born in St. James at September, 27th in 1973.
    At the age of sixteen he came with his brother to Germany to stay with his mother and live a better life. Shortly afterwards young Anthony got down with rapping.
    To do music brings a lot of joy to him. Music is a great pleasure for Sledgy; he feels committed to make music.

    It helped him through his hard time after his entry into Germany which was totally foreign to him at that time.
    After he had rapped a long time for himself to take his mind off his worries, Burnett signed a contract with the label Power Jam Records.
    With conclusion of the treaty his music career begins.

    Under the name of Marvin Burnett he performs onstage (YOU) two times and at Funworld, Bodensee. Furthermore his music appeared on Radio K?ln and Radio 7.
    For two years he has been under contract to Power Jam Records which is known as GUMAK Media e.K. today.

    The Jamaican Burnett is also charitable. He gave many benefit performances, among others at K?lner Zoo, in a retirement home and not least at town hall in Cologne- Kalk.
