Chemtrail assembled and began constructing songs in the early months of 2006. The musical background of Chemtrail's members is a diverse one. Their resumés boast a history of punk rock, stoner rock, rock and metal bands ... all of which can be be found evident in certain parts of their song writing. Their music contains no vocals, they are an instrumental band whose songs communicate through raw emotion rather than lyrical messages. Loud-quiet-loud, inspirational build-ups and heart-wrenching soundscapes are all constituents of Chemtrail's sound.
Chemtrail released their debut album titled "Via Satellite" in September of 2007; receiving praise in the alternative European market and claiming the "Top Avant Garde" Asbury Music Award of 2007 in their home state of New Jersey.
Released on November 21st of 2008, Chemtrail's sophomore effort titled "Terminals" further showcases the band's intelligent song writing and wide catalog of influences. Their ability to break away from the standard instrumental song structure has set them apart from their peers, making them captivating to both the casual listener and fans acquainted with the genre.
General Press
Jay Lustig [The Star Ledger]:
"The Asbury Park-based quintet's songs are tightly structured and carefully textured and each has its own dramatic flow."
Reviews of "Terminals"
John Pfeiffer [The Aquarian]:
"The tone these guys get is incredible. Study this disc before you go record guitar parts."
"Chemtrail delves deeply into the instrumental vein, a genre I find both fearless and extremely welcome to our world of lame pop laziness."
"I think one of the major strong points of this band is the way they communicate superbly without being typically vocal, using their instruments to tell you what you need to know..."
Reviews of "Via Satellite"
Alessandro Bonetti [Kronic Magazine - Italy]:
"4/5 stars"
"the five-piece elegantly eludes an imitative approach..."
"a post-rock work of an emotive matrix..."
"an album to chase..."
Manacast Reviews [UK]:
"Chemtrail's music is packed full of passionate warmth and poise. People looking for your next step into the world of post rock, you might just have found it."

Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, its influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.
To celebrate our first 27 releases on Section 27 Netlabel, we proudly present to you "Sectioned", a compilation of 27 tracks, amounting to 2 hours across two discs of twisted electronic beats, discordant melodies, haunting passages, broken ambience, bending senses of time and space, microscopic glitches, pounding bass frequencies, sounds between sounds, the human voice and the audible sensation of music dissolving in acid. This is the sound of your mind's eye. This is the sound of the Sectioned... Strap yourself in and enjoy the experience.
Also features a 75 minute bonus disc "Sectioned : Nonimxs", including 9 remixes of selected Section 27 artists by Nonima and 2 original tracks created by Silent Snow and Nina Kardec using existing Nonima tracks.
