My Architects are five intense young men from Warrington, England. They consist of aid burrows (vocals/acoustic guitar), Rich Robinson (electric guitar), Matt Mc William (bass ), Dave Cheetham (drums ) and Mike "Fibes" Philips (keyboards/ sampler/backing vocals ) .They formed in 2004 and have been stealthily honing their sound in the wilds of the North - West over the past year. Grand Designs is the quintet"s first album. It was recorded in Warrington and France in the company of James Sanger (U2,Keane ) and then mixed by lan Grimble (Manics,Travis). It is by any standards a lovingly crafted debut. On their seething busy My Space site the band say that they sound like "contradictory thoughts and sensations". Fierce Panda Records. 2006.
