  • Bio

    Since 2003 Sydney based aplonea have been quietly asserting themselves on the Australian music scene. After experimenting with different sub genres under the ‘Rock’ banner, a home was found. Somewhere between the energetic raw power of the ‘Foo Fighters’, the melodic ballads of ‘Coldplay’ and the intricate pop stylings of ‘Jimmy Eat World’ lies aplonea.. .. .. After numerous EP’s, 2010 will see aplonea’s debut album ‘Far From Here’ released. 13 songs encompassing the journey so far. With a tour to follow, it is as they say, onwards and upwards.. .. .. "With originality these days becoming harder and harder to achieve, aplonea are lucky to have found their niche. Expect to see a high energy show mixed with slower ballads, perfectly crafted in a way that that puts you in a state of melodic ecstasy. aplonea are a band you'd be a fool to miss" - Rose Sadleir, Scene Magazine .. .. .. "There is a unique blend of commercial tangibilty with independence and originality on this record that indicates a band who knows exactly what they're on about, not something one hears every day" - Tony McMahon, Time Off Magazine .. .. .. "The opening track 'In My Heart' is a strong, upbeat sound made to be played loudly. 'Sad People' calls upon sentimentality but doesn't go overboard with it. Similarly, the final track 'I Wish My Eyes Were Cameras (As I See)' is a poignant song about capturing the moment. The EP is a good balance of rock and easy listening" - Scene Magazine .. .. .. "Aplonea and their track 'To Love Again' has all the right ingredients to be a multi - format radio song, a great vocal line and a wall of guitars." - John O'Donnell, CEO of EMI Music Australasia... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ............ .... .. .. .. ............MySpace Layouts..............MySpace Layouts............MySpace Codes............MySpace Backgrounds..........
