Sine Star Project

"This previously-skeptical writer's idea that SINE STAR PROJECT are just a bunch of mysteriously-titled jobbing, Prog-gy musos led by a bloke with a daft name. Far from it, 'Building Humans' is a timely, beautifully-executed album about life in the increasingly frightening 21st Century played by a group who pull off the deft trick of equating virtuosity with emotional resonance and make it count in the modern context. Good for them" --Whisperin And Hollerin



Sine Star Project plays eclectic music, unified by beautifully delivered vocal melodies and propelled by dramatic, bombastic arrangements. Featuring stirring strings, ripping synths, shining brass, and an unusual yet marvelous dash of Nashville Americana by way of Mike Davies’s superb pedal steel playing. They follow the credo that more is more; The overall impact is highly charged, emotional music delivered in the grandiose style reminiscent of Queen, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Buckley, Sound Garden, The Beatles, King Crimson, Muse, Wilco, and the Flaming Lips.



ALBUMS:



-Blue Born Earth Boy (2006)

REVIEWS:



•Q magazine: A remarkably varied backdrop sprinkles colour into his dark world. A beautifully fashioned debut. JOHN AIZLEWOOD **** Q Recommends.

•Rock Sound: One big show-off of an album from a very talented songwriter backed by a band that can match his ambition.

•Disorder Online: There’s fascinating brainpower at work here. It deserves to be nourished. - MARTHA STUART



•Losingtoday: Sine Star Project are not from this world. Ziggy Stardust left our universe, procreated and left his spawn to fend for themselves on a mixed diet of Muse, Led Zeppelin, Queen and magic dust.

•Unpeeled: SOUNDS LIKE? Roxy Music have been listening too many camp musicals.

IS IT ANY GOOD? Oh yeah, over arching poptastic bombast and slick cuteness, all splattered with bucketloads of black hearted irony. read full review here
