Signed to Infectious in November 2011, the quartet ∆ (pronounced Alt-J) met at Leeds University while studying fine art and have spent the last two years studying and rehearsing in the basement of a small terraced house.The result is something gorgeously unique while also brilliantly, endlessly inventive.

    ∆ on my Mac pops up when I press these 3 keys at the same time: Option (AKA "Alt"); Shift; D! No idea why everyone writes about "Alt-J". ∆ stands for the Greek "Delta", which was confirmed in an interview by singer/guitar player Joe Newman. Hence, ∆ should be pronounced as Delta! In science, ∆T for example stands for the change in temperature. Very handy to calculate the expansion of a metal in summer vs winter. So, ∆ stands for "change"... Nuff said? BTW, cool eclectic album from these boys!
