We are Apartment 26

About Me

Bio's are gay!! but, if you must...It's truly rare when a band comes along determined to change the very fabric of the contemporary music form. It takes a brave unit to spit in the face of convention and boldly forge their own path of rock and roll creativity. Apartment 26 is just such a band. Heavily electric, heavily eclectic, yet also heavily heavy, this young British contingent seem intent on playing the rock and roll game by their own rules-- destroying some time-honored musical traditions in the process. With each step along that path, Apartment 26 (the name taken from a David Lynch film) has expanded upon a skeletal structure drawn as much from the heady rhythms of jazz as the straight-ahead fury of contemporary rock. And as vocalist Terence “Biff” Butler (who, by the way, is the proud son of Black Sabbath's legendary bassist Geezer Butler) is quick to explain, his band's notoriously unpredictable and highly cerebral approach to their musical craft remains this band’s primary means of nurturing their organic sound.Through the components of electronic energy, '40s-era jazz attitudes and 21st Century technology, Apartment 26 now emerge as an unpredictable, cutting-edge unit that as shown throughout Music for the Massive stand at the forefront of a new musical generation. Despite his noble metal lineage, Biff is seeking to be his own man. Mind you, his current nonconformist musical actions are not intended to detract from the admiration he holds for both his father and the Sabbath legacy. It's just that young Biff and his cronies realize that this is a new musical day, and they are very much a part of hard rock's new breed.
