| About strangers die everyday
REVIEWS: "Strangers Die Everyday are a Boulder-based trio who's music flows like a raging river driving you through a soundscape of sweeping violin, cello and driving bass lines. Deviating from the standard rock format, Strangers Die Everyday replaces the guitar with violin as a lucidly ominous new voice . As the rhythm section puts down a solid foundation, the violin builds melodies that are haunting in nature, inspired more from a personal aesthetic than classical training. In constant pursuit of redefining their approach to rock music, Strangers Die Everyday have played with theater groups for unique alleyway performances and hardcore acts such as Amanda Woodward. Often compared to Godspeed You Black Emperor, Hanged Up and Mogwai, Strangers Die Everyday brings a fresh look at the progressive post-rock aesthetic." -MARSHALL, PROMOTER We were included in "Paul Kane's Top Ten List" in HEARTATTACK MAGAZINE "Strangers Die Everyday is the rockinist outfit to come out of Boulder in a long, long, long, long, long time. S.D.E. have been compared to the likes of Godspeed You Black Emperor!, Hanged Up, and Mogwai. Personally, I think they're better..." - DENVEREVOLUTION "Atmosphere and gravity: two invisible, intangible things that keep us alive even as they imprison us. Strangers Die Everyday is well versed in this contradiction; the Boulder quartet uses bass, drums, cello and violin in its attempt to simultaneously harness and succumb to these vast, pervasive forces. Begun in late 2003 as a trio comprising Stirling Myles, Scott Wilkinson and Lawrence Armstrong, Strangers recorded a three-song demo last summer that, while shaky and unsure, hinted at greater things on the horizon. With the subseguent addition of cellist Jessie Dettwiler, the group became complete, honing its Rachel's-meets-Explosions in the Sky majesty via and penchant for crackle, groan and echo that builds and subsides like cycles of the earth itself." - CRITIC'S CHOICE in the THE WESTWORD you can hear tracks of ours at: www.purevolume.com/strangersdieeveryday some of the people we have played with include: ian cooke, joseph childress, joshua novak, night shark, parts and labor, bailer, green fuse, SAUL WILLIAMS, humble ary, motheater, amanda woodward, life at these speeds, et cetera. please email us for any reason [strangersdieeveryday@yahoo.com]. thanks a lot! ...STRANGERS |
