One of the most talked about up and coming prog groups of 2014,
An Endless Sporadic, is releasing a new single on the heels of their
appearance on the Progressive Nation 2014 cruise hosted by
Transatlantic's Mike Portnoy! The new single, featuring Zach Kamins
on guitar, Eloy Palacios on bass, Tony Solis on additional guitar, and Andy Gentile on drums, is titled “Derpulous”; a short
instrumental piece about the journey of an alien seahorse in
treacherous seas.
“A
wild progressive sonic ride. It's thrilling to hear progressive rock
that is fresh and inspiring. These guys are obviously very skilled
and their music is brimming over with youthful creativity and
vitality.” - Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater)
Originally
formed the band in 2005 in Houston, TX through a series of random
jam/improv sessions by Zach Kamins and Andy Gentile. Eventually,
AES's song “Sun Of Pearl” was featured in Tony Hawk's American
Wasteland video game. The track “Impulse” was added as a bonus
song in Guitar Hero 3, and the track “Anything” has been featured
in Guitar Hero: World Tour as free Downloadable Content in the
Neversoft Track Pack. The band has a wide range of musical influences,
which can be heard throughout their work, and include ELP, King
Crimson, Dream Theater, The Flower Kings, Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree,
Opeth, Dillinger Escape Plan, Sikth, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum,
Primus, Mr. Bungle and Ozric Tentacles.
An
Endless Sporadic's recent performance on the Progressive Nation at
Sea 2014 cruise garnered high praise from those who attended! The
cruise, which ran from February 18-22, also featured legendary Jon
Anderson of YES, Transatlantic, Portnoy Sheehan Macalpine Sherinian,
Adrian Belew, King's X, Spock's Beard, The Flower Kings and many
others. Says Zach, “Sixthman ran a competition called Sixthman
Soundcheck, where they were selecting three up and coming progressive
rock bands to add to the bill. We actually weren't selected, but we
later received an e-mail that Mike Portnoy had a hard time choosing
the three bands and decided to add a 5th stage to the
cruise. We were selected to play on that stage.”
