Amazing original rock a.. la U2, PJ Harvey, Jeff Buckley, and the power of Zeppelin combined. Dancing in the desert with a wild lion or calling up a snake with a mysterious melody...earth shaking and mind bending...

Our version of Alt/Indie Rock is a combination of modern rock, power pop, classic rock, and blues with hints of spanish/middle eastern flavors. Unique songwriting, charismatic on-stage personalities and dynamic compositions set our band apart from others, yet appeal to a wide variety of audiences.

"Mystical and deeply relevant writing combined with the band's technical precision and singer Robin Lovejoy's encompassing range and power, Amalgamation brings us back to the roots of rock while pushing us forward into an important new construction of music. The group's live performance is unbeatable, offering power and subtlety with tunes that hearken to the best of Zeppelin and Sabbath, but elevated by the precious beauty of Lovejoy's voice. What Amalgamation offers is a chance for real music fans to finally get what they've been waiting for - an intelligent synthesis of sounds and styles created by truly skilled and soulful musicians that just plain know how to rock!".......................................Kirsten Maynard, former executive - Sony Corporation of America

"In today's world of pre-fabricated pop stars, it's rare to find a band whose unique style really ROCKS. AMALGAMATION resonates with soulful lyrics and intense music. Lead singer Robin Lovejoy captivates with a powerful voice that instantly draws you into Amalgamation's Web."

“Maybe it's because I'm a big Patti Smith fan (I've seen her 3 times), but I LOVE your Myspace tracks. I not only hear Smith's influence in your songs, but there's no denying the elements of punk, protest, and emotional purging. Really great rock!”

Cool tunes, Robin! What's funny is that the band that commented below me, Damage The Dream, is the band we share our Hitwall studio space with. I've known the guitarist since 4th grade. LOL. Do you actually know them?
