Ephemeral
Sun
With the
release of "Broken Door" at the end of 2004,
Ephemeral Sun have presented themselves as a formidable
ensemble, merging elements of progressive rock, atmospheric
metal, fusion, electronica and more into a singular intense
musical vision
Ephemeral Sun was formed
during the summer of 2002 by former Rain Fell Within
members as an opportunity to explore new musical territories and
more adventurous songwriting. Drawing on their diverse
backgrounds and experience with prog-rock, metal, jazz, fusion,
electronica, classical, and world music, the group quickly began
to create musical pieces that defy easy categorization. It was
quickly clear to the group that this new music has potential.
Following the
well-received demo/EP "Prototype 19.5" in 2003, the band
began work on what would become "Broken Door." Clocking
in at over 70 minutes, the album is a celebration of both the
band's desire to realize this music and the music itself. Nods
to the past of Rain Fell Within are present, but the sound
stretches further out, exploring instrumental passages, new
textures and musical styles.
New material is
ready for the upcoming sophomore release due in early 2006; in
the meantime, "Broken Door" is a wonderful introduction
to a fascinating new group.
