About Concentric (songs from new full length up now)
Concentric began as a therapeutic vacation from musical boundaries, and a year later is still expanding on that theme. Jim Becker and Jerry Hauppa were growing weary of the cliches that plague the extreme metal genre when they discovered that both of them had acoustic side projects that were keeping their sanity. Though their styles were very different, what they had in common was an ear for the more progressive side of music and its ability to challenge the listener. By combining their efforts the two released a demo in 2004 and later one epic 16 minute track in the Mosaic EP, which depicted a vast array of emotions and themes using only layered acoustic guitars. After finding a drummer in Brad O'Malley, Concentric fully fleshed out their sound and furthered the progressive themes hinted at in previous recordings. The three piece is midway through the writing of their first full length and is currently recording a demo to represent how they currently sound with the new percussive element added. The group is determined to perform instrumental acoustic music in a way that hasn't been heard before, and judging by the response received at shows played both at home and abroad, Concentric is definitely achieving that goal.

you guys played amazing last night, it was great. I haven't seen you play in a while ... actually it was since volatile fest haha, but you guys just sound tighter as a band, know what I mean? Opaque is always incredible to listen to, especially the ending. And I was sooo stoked to see that the song Jerry made for that endorsement was turned into a song in your set list, that sound incredible as well.
I was also listening outside when I was smoking a cigarette, and I heard a lot of people saying how they liked you and thought you guys were great!!!
you guys are all real cool and genuine dudes too, I appreciated getting a chance to talk to you guys. Hopefully I'll see you guys soon!
Thank you, We appreciate your support ! We hope to see ya soon at one of our shows and make sure to check out our music at our MySpace and check the merchandise in our shop !
an endorsement with emerald!? very nice! haha yeah i wanted to see your release show with the savini effect but i checked with the venue and, go figure, it was a 21+ show. but let me know as soon as you guys have an all ages show, as im sure you guys know ive been a big fan of your music for years. take care, good look at the y not!
new songs are incredible as usual guys, great job. my main question though is whether or not Acceptance got recorded, because ever since you put the video up of it on youtube I've been listening to a whole lot. If it's recorded you should throw it up on the player!
