EnterTheLexicon, or "ETL" to their ardent followers, are a three-piece alternative rock band from Newcastle Upon Tyne, but as of 2016 now located in Brighton. The band is made up of Mykl Barton (vocals/guitar), Danny Pitson (bass) and Ben Hardy (drums). They began making noise on the Newcastle scene after receiving constant support from BBC Introducing in Newcastle during October 2013.
With influences from legendary bands such as QOTSA, Reuben and Nirvana, ETL combine sweet melodies and vocal hooks with pure, hard-edged riffs.
The band has lived by being honest with the music they create, and it shows with every melody, riff and emotive sound within this release.
‘EnterTheLexicon’ the band's debut self-titled EP is received a 5/5 rating from Hit The Floor Magazine. Additionally, the video for their first single, “Do You Feel The Same” premiered exclusively on Punktastic April 2014 and was featured on rotation by both Scuzz and Kerrang! TV.
Their new E.P. 'Ruining Lives' was released in November 2015 with the lead single "Codes" again being premiered on Scuzz TV. After a hugely successful crowdfunding campaign EnterTheLexicon's full length debut album began being recorded in December 2015 and January 2016. With the relocation and debut album under the belt, EnterTheLexicon have firm plans for the upcoming 2016 and plan to make it the biggest most rad year they've had to date.
