   About Astronaut Down
The music of Astronaut Down strives to achieve a balance between the depth and complexity of progressive metal, and the accessible energy of mainstream rock. Intricate polyrhythms and ambitious song structures coexist with memorable melodies and subtly-evolving thematic progressions, all delivered with conviction and vitality.

Their influences range from old school progressive rock to contemporary metal, from melodic punk to post-hardcore. Astronaut Down plays new progressive rock, focusing on the composition, with a balance of elements accessible to a wide range of listeners.

Their new concept album God's Eye weaves together dense layers of guitars over a driving, erratic rhythm section and tells the emotional story of a reluctant hero's struggle with his own strange power in the face of an impending apocalypse. Whether carefully unfolding an elaborate instrumental passage or delivering an anthemic chorus, the 65-minute Gods Eye packs a powerful punch.

What's up?

Just stopping by to show some love. We appreciate that you're doing your own thing!

Blood Root Mother believes strongly in the power of music. Genuine music transcends all limitations and boundaries, and happens when musicians and listeners are communicating with one another on the deepest level possible. In a society overcome by an obsession with flashy images and stale radio hits, we seek to find a sound that shakes the foundation of the status quo. Since the dawn of human civilization, music has been about sharing humanity and truly connecting with others. So stay connected with us, and join us on our journey.

Peace,
Elliot


The artistic activity does not lie in art itself as such. It penetrates into a deeper world in which all art forms flow together, and in which the harmony of soul and cosmos in the nothing has its outcome in reality.
-Bruce Lee
