Engineers es una banda británica de shoegaze/dream pop. La banda se formó en Londres en 2003 por el bajista/guitarrista/tecladista Mark Peters, el cantante/guitarrista Simon Phipps, el bajista/guitarrista Dan MacBean y el baterista Andrew Sweeney. Tras el lanzamiento de su segundo álbum Three Fact Fader en 2009, MacBean y Sweeney dejaron la banda, y fueron reemplazados por el bajista/vocalista Daniel Land, el baterista Matthew Linley y el tecladista Ulrich Schnauss. Phipps y Land abandonarían la banda más tarde antes del lanzamiento de Always Returning de 2014. El sonido de Engineers ha sido descrito como "difuso, etéreo y atmosférico" y la banda a menudo cita las obras de The Beach Boys, Brian Eno, Cocteau Twins, Spiritualized y Pink Floyd como influencias.
“Incorrigible humanity, therefore, led astray by the giant Nimrod, presumed in its heart to outdo in skill not only nature but the source of its own nature, who is God; and began to build a tower in Sennaar, which afterwards was called Babel (that is, 'confusion'). By this means human beings hoped to climb up to heaven, intending in their foolishness not to equal but to excel their creator.”
“The civil engineer is the real 19th century architect.”
“I was originally supposed to become an engineer but the thought of having to expend my creative energy on things that make practical everyday life even more refined, with a loathsome capital gain as the goal, was unbearable to me.”
“Engineering is too important to wait for science.”
“A man should build a house with his own hands before he calls himself an engineer.”
“Engineering is the art of directing the great sources of power in nature for the use and convenience of man.”
