In a landlocked town, ingeniously built on a swamp, boasting rampant methamphetamine use and the highest rate of chlamydia in New Zealand comes the violently grand four piece 'aether'.
Formed in April 2004 from two old high school friends, a stray vocalist and a guitarist crudely pinched from another band (Vetox), aether have fast assembled a palette of progressive songs mixing dark, clean runs interwoven with searing distortions and sonic excess, alongside the expected musical augmentation, pivot turns, multiple climaxes and denouements.
In September 2005, the public at large was exposed to their first studio recording, Chapter 9: Swearing In, showcasing some beautiful movements through monster riffs and contemplative periods.
In compliment to their dark, brooding and dynamic sound they sport an equally explosive live performance. Some say man always winds up destroying the things he loves This lot continue that through to their guitars, drum skins, microphones and probably selves.
Alongside their regular gig circuit through Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga bars, theyve been invited and praised for their radio live-to-air sessions, slots in larger local events Vampires Ball, the Pagan Festival and the recent Nightbreed Festival.
With the single out, and further epic studio recordings promised to follow, wider New Zealand will have a shot at consuming and elevating a rhythmically solid, aurally exciting and emotionally expressive new band.
