The ║ ║ former frontman for Sky Eats Airplane and Of Mice & Men has joined ║ ║ forces with 8-string guitarist Joshua Travis [The Tony Danza Tap Dance ║ ║ Extravaganza], bassist Travis Sykes and drummer Chad Hasty to create ║ ║ Glass Cloud. ║ ║ ║ ║ The Hampton, VA-based band is currently in San Diego, CA recording ║ ║ their debut full-length album at Lambesis Studios, with Joshua Travis ║ ║ also serving as producer. Glass Cloud will release the full-length ║ ║ album in late Spring/early Summer 2012 through Equal Vision Records. ║ ║ ║ ║ Musically, Glass Cloud offers a sense of controlled chaos fueled by ║ ║ Roush's deep, ferocious growls and distinct, gritty cleans. Travis' ║ ║ phenomenal guitarwork and ability to constantly surprise listeners ║ ║ stands out as he displays the perfect balance between energetic, ║ ║ driving intricacies and calmer progressions that carry a dark, eerie ║ ║ tone. Sykes and Hasty, graduates of Berklee College of Music in ║ ║ Boston, MA, rule the rhythm section contributing unique cadences and ║ ║ swinging, jazzy grooves interlaced with softer symphonic touches. ║ ║ Glass Cloud shines as the members deliver some of their heaviest and ║ ║ most technical compositions to date. ║ ║ ║ ║ Excitement and enthusiasm simply radiates out of the band as they ║ ║ discuss working together in the studio and developing a sound that is ║ ║ all their own. ôThe collective musicianship and talent level in this ║ ║ band is unbelievable,ö explains Travis. ôàand to top it off, the guys ║ ║ are all down-to-earth people too. Working on this record has been a ║ ║ lot of fun. We are trying to introduce something organic and ambient ║ ║ into heavy music. Not the typical breakdown heavy, but darker chords ║ ║ upon layers and layers.ö ║ ║ ║ ║ Roush also boasts unabashedly about the remarkable caliber of musical ║ ║ proficiency within the band, and specifically about the creative ║ ║ connection between himself and Travis stating, ôFrom the moment he ║ ║ became involved in this band, he was sending me fully finished tracks ║ ║ left and right, songs that were blowing my mind. Musically, Josh is a ║ ║ beastàthe dude is a musical machine. We meshed so well, right from the ║ ║ start, making tracks that had no limits to them. I couldnÆt have asked ║ ║ for a better and more prolific guitarist to accompany me in this new ║ ║ musical endeavor. And with Josh being the producer of the debut Glass ║ ║ Cloud record, we know that we are making the exact album that we want ║ ║ to make.ö ║ ║ ║ ║ ôWe have been working intensely in the studio, but it will definitely ║ ║ pay off when we introduce something new and fresh to the scene,ö ║ ║ Travis concludes. ôI donÆt think I could be more excited about a ║ ║ project.ö Glass Cloud will spend 2012 on the road supporting their ║ ║ forthcoming album, with tour dates to be announced soon. ║ ║ ║ ║ URL: http://www.facebook.com/glasscloud ║ ║ ║ ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Loyal Rippers In Heat Since 2007 TeamUTP@2013
