Close To Modern is a Las Vegas based Indie Rock band who’s dark melodramatic sounds enlighten the deepest part of the human spirit.

Their sound classified as “Neu-Gloom” by the Las Vegas Weekly is no surprise, as their style is directly influenced by bands such as The Smiths, Joy Division, and the later Interpol and Editors. Playing numerous local shows since June of 2008, Close To Modern has branched out into the Los Angeles and San Francisco areas with much more success.

Always, making new music, for those who care to listen...
