SCIENCE
Science formed as a 5- piece at the end of 2002, although the core nucleus came about when singer/ guitarist Rebecca Jade and guitarist Dewi Rhys moved from their sleepy hometown of Penmaenmawr in North Wales to the big smoke of London in 1998. Taking in a myriad of different sounds, Science verge to and from every sonic extreme. They have been mentioned in the same breath as artists as diverse as Patti Smith, Television, Van Der Graaf Generator, PJ Harvey, Galaxie 500 and Belly, although in truth they sound like all of these and none of them at the same time. Science have played gigs with Simple Kid, Hope Of The States, Ingo Star Cruiser, Tom Baxter and Medium 21, and have received airplay on XFM, GTFM, Radio One’s Session In Wales and BBC Radio Wales. This year has seen Science release their first single, You Passed Thru, through the Shifty Disco MP3 Club. Hailed as “fantastic” by XFM’s Claire Sturgess, and as “spine- tingling excellence” by ireallylovemusic.co.uk.
