WHO WE ARE?

2009-01-01T13:09:00.000-08:00

The PLEBEIAN GRANDSTAND was formed in the summer 2005. Its essential purpose is playing intense music which is to be releasing and liberating.

Four-piece band from Toulouse, France, gathering a handful of beautiful underground freaks. The quartet can be easily labelled as a pure musical exorcism of hate, rage and thirst for life. Intense violence to tell about, stories of common people. 2008, first EP, the debut war cry from original and categorically defiant Plebeian grandstand. Brought forward with cutting-edge songwriting, striking with a siege of destroying power and emotion, and consuming with abysmal force. 2 years later, some gigs behind (played DIY shows and shared the stage with PELICAN, HORSE THE BAND, PELICAN, LOMA PRIETA, THE HOLY MOUNTAIN, OFF MINOR, INTRONAUT, BLACKLISTED, MONARCH!, CELESTE, THE OCEAN, I PILOT DAEMON, ALEA JACTA EST, CARNIVAL IN COALS, MANIMAL, ULTRA VOMIT etc...) Plebeian Grandstand was ready to release 'How hate is hard to define', focusing on emotions that captivate as no other and questioning them as they would be at stake for everyone. Plebeian was presenting more mature elements of composition, telling the difference in what has to become emphasize and what's to be dropped quickly, so drawing up more progressive patterns on their vision of their music. With 'How hate is hard to define', Plebeian has reached uncommon grounds and reaches the top level of uncompromising music. The members also have side projects. MONTREAL ON FIRE (indie/shoegaze), comprising Adrien and Simon (Romain, lead singer for I PILOT DEAMON is also on the boat.), KHOD BREAKER (electro/hiphop), comprising the drummer, Raphaël, and Yoshi Tonku (mathrock), comprising the recently recruited bass player, Cymon. PLEBEIAN GRANDSTAND will be on EU tour during april 2010 with SELENITES and with TITAN this summer.

Discography: .The Vulture's Riot EP (2008) .How Hate is Hard to Define (2010)

"PLEBEIAN GRANDSTAND | How hate is hard to define (2010) - 2 years from the gasping 'Vulture riot' ep, Plebeian Grandstand returns with a full percussive punishment in the name of 'How hate is hard to define'. Forward-thinking, exclusive and colossal, the chaotic lure of the album has taken complexity to new heights and added a healthy dose of incomparable melodic songcraft, for it is Plebeian Grandstand who understood the crescendo-running equation melancolic sounds = death. Hate is hard to define and you won't know which side you belong to." BASEMENT APES INDUSTRIES
