WEYE are a 3 Piece Progressive Instrumental Math Rock Band from Gurnee, IL - USA.
The members are:
Jared Wright - Guitar
Kevin Stephens - Bass
Grant Gosizk - Drums
Their bio from MySpace tells you what these guys do:
"There is no shortage of instrumental bands in today's indie scene. Unfortunately, the majority of them have subscribed to the single note 'movements' washed out with delay. Weye is not one of those bands. This Chicago trio brings the power of Pelican, with the finesse of Piglet. The excitement of Battles, but the clever songwriting of Minus the Bear. Dynamic tapping riffs, seemingly endless looping pedals, monster bass lines, and caffeinated drums almost reminds the listener of classic Don Cab. Their unique, fun sound can be heard throughout the midwest as they support their debut EP, Friends, Family, & Others."
They released their debut EP "Friends, Family, & Others" in late 2010. What you get is 7 tracks on for 33 mins or so.
So if your into Pelican and Russian Circles then you will find much to enjoy here. Highly Recommended to stand out from the rest of the Instrumental Rock Crowd.
This has got some great guitar riffs and great drumming as well. This might be a bit different from the usual Sludgelord Blogspot recommendations but its such a damn fine release I had to recommend it.
You can download this release from BandCamp's famous pay as you want deal.
