WE ARE THE PHYSICS, purveyors of the completely fictional MUTANT SCIENCE PUNK ROCK hail hail from Glasgow, Scotland and first graced a stage in 2005 by mistake when a better band was cancelled. Originally known as WE ARE THE PHYSICS CLUB AND THEREFORE EVERYTHING WE SAY IS FACT, the spindly legged quartet source from bands such as Devo, The Skids, Polysics, Buddy Holly & Ex Models. The Phys have been relentlessly gigging up and down the UK and across Europe, sharing stages and Haribo with bands such as Art Brut, Polysics, Franz Ferdinand, 30 Seconds To Mars & Sigue Sigue Sputnik in an effort to become half decent all the while dancing like robots.
Known for their eccentric leg manoeuvres and bad eyesight, the band released their first LP in 2008 called WE ARE THE PHYSICS ARE OK AT MUSIC, which became the first album ever to be simultaneously brilliant and shit. In 2009, WATP toured Japan, had their video nominated for a BAFTA and began working on their second record which they claim will only be available on bluetooth or as a self-replicating virus that destroys all other mp3s on your computer.
