The Magnificents met at Edinburgh Art College near the turn of the century. Figuring that music would be the least degrading post-college career choice, they began work creating a legitimate band. By marrying differing performance techniques with the desire to make people dance, they have built a reputation as one of the most exciting and unpredictable live bands around. Tour partners have included Stereolab, Trans Am, The Beta Band (the only band ever to do so) and Mogwai. Following a year of experimentation, code breaking, alchemy and the continued search for enlightenment, they have taken to hiding under the streets of Edinburgh in the rat and fungi infested M-Bunker, where they have recorded their 4 EPs, and both of their full-lengths, including their latest, Year Of Explorers.
