   About The Gravity Crisis
Based on a firm belief that noisey guitar music can be as melodic as anything else around, the band formed in a sweaty old converted Birmingham factory in late 2006....... in the rainy Spring of 2008 the Gravity Crisis received plays from Radio 1's Zane Lowe, Huw Stephens and Colin Murray, 6music's Tom Robinson and Steve Lamacq within the same week, all due to a demo sent in by chance, that along wih successful supports with The Enemy and The Pigeon Detectives in 2007 the band are now happily going about their biz playing shows... come and get involved!

"Certainly the best demo to land on my desk this year"
Steve Lamacq - BBC6 Music


"Punchy, golden era indie choruses weave and then soar from a super heavyweight backing. TGC are a wrecking ball, riddled with pop hooks, that you'll want your face to be smashed in with over and over again"
THE FLY


"Like Graham Coxon if he'd been raised on Motorhead instead of the Kinks"
NME


"How the Midlands awakes! The Gravity Crisis will be in danger of kick starting an exciting scene. For once the NME hit the proverbial nail. Certainly this twin guitar four-piece fires along like a rock'n'roll McLusky or English and artrock Pixies. Perhaps a tad more straight ahead (but also hooky) than the post-punk from Leeds and the North East (Forward Russia and Dartz!) but equally abrasive and flat-out. No releases to date but lets hope Artrocker Club dates help change all that ! I'd almost be tempted to mention 'old school' ... as in Detroit Garage Rock, Scandinavian art-punk (International Noise Conspiracy stylee) and UK punk-pop (Mega City 4) - any way it's full-throttle.
ARTROCKER MAGAZINE


"An epidemic in the waiting"
MEDIA ASSASSIN


"Buzzcocks-y vocals with a hard, fast and dirty...oh so dirty...musical heart. The kind of band that make you want to buy a motorbike and drive across America drinking Jack Daniels and snorting Ajax (it cleans the sinuses a treat so I'm told). Ace!"
THE HEARING AID


"Loud enough to be heard in space"
BBC ONLINE

I should point out, that if you don’t get one of these messages in the future it doesn’t mean I’ve stopped playing Gravity Crisis , it’s just that I’m currently feeling quite industrious so I’ve got around to posting this message, but there’s every chance in the future that I wont – I am quite a lazy man you see.

Cheers,
James
