Founded in 2009 by Jordan Wright and James Runham, the band, Lexicomane began writing songs that were heavily influenced by A Day To Remember in the style of Pop-punk/Metalcore genres, when joined by the rest of the current members of the band to create a 5 piece band, Lexicomane started to write full songs and began to start playing gigs around the local area.

2010 saw the departure of the drummer and the joining of Lee Griffiths, this new addition added a new sound to Lexicomane, incorporating more screams and heavier songs which changed their genre to a more Hardcore/Metalcore scene. However it meant Lexicomane had to begin their search for a new drummer.

After searching for many a months, a lucky game on Xbox Live found the future drummer for Lexicomane! Zac Fellows joined the band, this addition dramatically changed the bands future, giving them a whole new style and bringing fans of that genre. At the end of 2010 Lexicomane had wrote their first EP, named ‘Blinded’ which was recorded and released in January 2011. After the release of this EP, the band started playing larger gigs with bigger bands; at venues such as the Slade Rooms, Wolverhampton, at which we brought over 100 fans to see the band, and The Fern and Fallow in Cannock.

2011 was a busy year for Lexicomane, playing gigs at The Varsity in Wolverhampton with bands such as Hey! Alaska and Monroe. In September, the band played at the Slade Rooms once again with some very large bands like Heights and Feed the Rhino; this show seemed to bring Lexicomane a lot of attention from promoters like Emma Scott and LMAO Promotions, and began to play a lot shows for these promoters.

The band started to play gigs at larger venues such as the o2 Academy Birmingham for Emma Scott Presents. Their first show for this promoter was with Envy Of The State, which brought a very large crowd which brought more fans to see Lexicomane. The 2nd Emma Scott Presents show was at the o2 Academy Birmingham, once again, playing with A Poetic Yesterday.

In 2012, Lexicomane began work on their 2nd EP, named ‘A Clear Perspective’; which was recorded at JJM Studios, Walsall. Shortly after the release of this EP, we saw the loss of Lee Griffiths from the band. This was a sad loss for the band as we had spent many years gigging and recording together. Determined to carry on with the band, we thought that the band may have to return to a 5 piece band again; however this idea was shortly changed when Lexicomane saw the joining of their current screamer, Gaz.

Gaz brought a new sound to Lexicomane, and to this day they have been writing new songs which are massively influenced by Architects and Parkway Drive. Lexicomane’s first show with the new member was Cannock Fest, playing with over 30 different bands at Bridgetown Social Club.

Lexicomane look forward to their future as a band with some very large opportunities coming up such as their Headline show for Emma Scott Presents at the o2 Academy Birmingham and a podcast for Sanctuary Xposed FM.

Lexicomane are currently working on a future album.

"Definitely a band to look out for in 2011 and beyond" - Emma Scott
