Citing amongst their influences Johnny Marr, The Cure, Jimmy Eat World,
Weezer, Death Cab for Cutie and of course, Stourbridge's finest, The Wonder
Stuff and Ned's Atomic Dustbin, Science vs. Romance simply aim to be the
band that they would most want to listen to if they weren't already in it.
The young band are passionate about what they do and inspire dedication in
their ever expanding fanbase. They have a mature understanding of the
business they are in and are not afraid of the hard work ahead. Taking
lessons learnt from their previous musical endeavours, the band spent
almost a year in the rehearsal room before ever setting foot on stage.
This dedication to their craft paid dividends, with praise not only being
received from the local press but also coming in the form of a request from
prominent U.S. band Circa Survive, to join them on their U.K. tour, a
request which was gladly accepted. Soon the band had caught the attention
of Kerrang! Radio's Emma Scott, who after hand-picking them to play her
first 'Emma Scott presents...' showcase, gave the boys extensive air play
on her shows.
Within just over a year of first stepping out on stage, they released their
debut EP "From the Back Seat" in March 2008 through Norwich-based 'In An
Emergency Dial' Records and played shows up and down the UK. Coming up to
the present day, Science vs. Romance have completed new recordings with
producer Greg Haver, (known for his work with Manic Street Preachers,
Catatonia and Lost Prophets) and are keen to expand upon all that they have
presently managed to achieve.
