The Grim Upper Hand

About Me


Powered by Podbean.com The Grim Upper Hand is a musical project focused on originality. The group consists of Josh and Jared, two musicians with an affinity for dark experimental music. Lyrically the band focuses on topics untouched by typical musicians such as human evolution. Although their experimental nature makes for an original and compelling experience, their influences are prevalent in everything they do. The product is coherent and developed music. Anyone who enjoys the harsh electronic sounds of the past will find The Grim Upper Hand to be a refreshing extension, rather than repetition, of the electronic genre. From composition to production, the band always strives to explore the new territory made available by digital music processing.Our first album "Gifts that Mar" is complete.

No cheesy movie samples used

All sounds heard on "Gifts that Mar" artificially created by Jared and I. No cheesy "full metal jacket" samples used.
