Some reviews of Aethellis : Aethellis "The result of this debut was one magnificent work of symphonic rock that transmits an optimism beyond the common.....Very recommended and essential in your progressive library." - Descubre La Caja Pandora "The album is the rare stone overturned that reveals a bounty of new revelations." - The Music Street Journal The Aethellis album was listed from June '03 through March '04 in the Best Bands of the Week : "Indispensable work, highly recommendable..." - Progressive Rock and Progressive Metal E-Zine "8.6 / 10" - Power Play Records "The songs are very strong, catchy and still adventurous enough to keep you interested from start to finish." - Strutter Magazine "...these
melodies are sometimes more easy listening, sometimes more twisted but
they always have an interesting progressive sound..." |
Aethellis has the
soaring majesty of classic symphonic rock and incorporates a
contemporary rhythmic feel along with asymmetrical meters and polytriad
harmonies. And the occasionally catchy hook!
The first Aethellis album was spearheaded and recorded in 2002/2003 by classically trained keyboardist / vocalist / hack guitarist / narcissist Ellsworth Hall and has many influences including rock, classical, synth pop, funk, jazz and even hip-hop. This either represents wide tastes or an inability to focus. Aethellis : Aethellis is available at such fine online stores as The new album, Aethellis: Northumbria is now available at a special introductory price as a CD at such online stories as CD Baby, and Melodic Revolution Records (both CD and digital download). It will be available from other vendors as well such as Kinesis and ZNR Records. It again features Ellsworth (keyboards / vocals / guitar) along with Mark Van Natta (guitars / vocals), Erik Marks (bass), Chris Marks (guitar), Joseph Dwyer (sax) and Mike Harrington (drums).
