What others have said...
"Tori Amos singing for the deftones.",
"Eeiry Melodic",
"Creepy, beautiful and aggressive",
"From the hypnotizing lows to the mesmorizing highs of the vocalist, the music itself never fails to capture the rather vivid imagery the songs tend to create within your mind when listening..."
"Brilliant. Finally a band that understands how to balance mainstream with individuality to create something that oddly fulfills both without the appearance of trying too hard."

Aria sharp is music that embraces the truths in life, and explores them. From good natured musings with feel good rhythms to blatent examination of humanity’s corruption steeped inside melodic overtones, Aria Sharp steps outside of the circle drawn for the rock genre without fear of losing the unique identity that band creates for itself.
