Bio
Melding the aggression of punk with the technical intricacies of prog
rock, math rock trio Tera Melos use jerky shifts in time signatures and
disjointed guitar noodling that bears a close resemblance to Don
Caballero and Hella. Like their counterparts in instrumental rock,
finger-tapped guitar parts are the centerpiece, complemented by angular
bass riffs and splintered spaz-jazz drumming, but contrasting dynamics
are a bigger focus of the band's songs, with ambient electronics and
sparse vocal lines occasionally incorporated into the interludes to
offset some of the more convoluted and noisier sections.
