About Me

Quaternary Limit formed in August 2006 out of the ashes of at least five bands, maybe more, and have since been dedicated to gigging up and down the country. In pursuit of this goal QL have played, to name just a few, Leeds, Sheffield and The Cavern Club in Liverpool. QL are now looking forward to a summer of writing and gigging and hope to see you on the road very soon.

Sounds Like: "Leicester four-piece do it Happy Mondays style! And they do it with some class too. 'Gimme Some Love' is a cracking track, and it stayed in my head for days. It has that Mondays shuffle and a disgracefully good chorus that has early Oasis written all over it. 'Feed Me to the Lions' brings with it Stone Roses-esque guitar, and while not their strongest track, it's still strong enough to warrant further listens. I rate this lot, and they'll be around for a long time i think."
-Steve Graham, Escapado Records

"Very entertaining to watch almost organised chaos but it works! They certainly turned a few heads."
-bbc.co.uk

"You can hear clear influences from the off. The Dead 60’s for a start, with bluesy riffs and a liberal sprinkling of early Oasis. Quaternary Limit have attitude, but need gigs for the attitude to work properly. The good points do shine through but a more mature vocalist would aid the transition from mediocre Oasis tribute band and into promising young upstarts. I hope the gigs do keep coming and they get the chance to fulfil their potential. They just need to tighten up a lot, and the choppy effect-laden guitar is done with as much panache as a toddler eating an ice-cream, and all we’re left with is a big sticky mess. Quaternary Limit do have some potential, but wear their influences on their sleeve a tad too much. Let’s just say that time will tell with this band, as time is definitely what they need."
- Mat Gladstone, Sandman Magazine

"A really fresh and new sound"
- Paul Bentley, Odd shApEd hEAd

"Featuring Tom Ugli from the fabulous student band UGLI, superb guitarists and fine vocals, this indie band has a hint of punk about it. They have a busy summer playing Leicester venues, which is great because they have some great songs for us to listen to, such as "Gimme Some Love"."
- artsinleicestershire.com

"I went to see Kasabian live a couple of weeks ago...you were 300 times better!"
- excited audience member (possibly James from The Utopians) at The Shed, Leicester, in January

"Think The Stone Roses, Soundgarden, Rage Against The Machine"
- Seaweed Biscuit Promotions, Sheffield

"like Kasabian with Ska"
- Karl Gee, Breek

Record Label: None
Type of Label: None
