Indeed, on different tracks from their self-titled debut album, one can hear influences ranging from progressive rock (Pink Floyd, Marillion, Peter Gabriel, Genesis, King Crimson) to post-rock (Sigur Ros, Godspeed You Black Emperor!) to ambient (Brian Eno, early Tangerine Dream) to jazz-rock (think Miles Davis’ early seventies output) to post-punk (Sonic Youth, Magazine) and even contemporary classical (Philip Glass, Steve Reich). The constant here is the band’s commitment to create a unique sound and to turn a deliberate blind eye to the passing whims of the mainstream.
To help flesh out the sound in the studio, the band contacted former Young Dubliners drummer Jon Mattox in 2005. Mattox (currently also with label-mates Uni) liked what he heard, and signed on not only as drummer but also as co-producer. The band further enlisted the help of guitarist Jeremy Castillo (also with the up-and-coming Mighty Six Ninety), Argentinian-born bassist Vivi Rama, sax player Jason Hemmens, singer Hollie Shepard, trumpeter Sean Erick, and trombonist Kevin Williams.

hugei Amazing music, Either/Or reminds me a bit of The Great Gig in the Sky. At least the vocals do.

Scaper I can't stop listening to their long goodbye song. I particularly love how they avoid repetition in their sound which is so common in ambient music. There is always some subtle progression that keeps things interesting - it's easy to get carried away on this constant stream of almost naturally evolving music.

TakeshiKovacs Guys - e-mail the band directly to get information and they'll add you to their mailing list. I contacted Sepand to say I enjoyed their album which I downloaded from iTunes. I added their biography to this site, and received e-mails back from the band, and got a free copy of their CD as a thankyou, which was great! Looking forward to their next release!
