   About CONIFER
IMPORTANT RECORDS says: Though Conifer has received quite a bit of critical praise they've somehow managed to live off the grid for the past seven years in the isolated coastal city of Portland, Maine. Not easily pigeon-holed by a set genre, mixing post-rock, kraut-rock, metal and psychedelia in a VERY loud way, they have created a relentlessly driving and hypnotic whirlwind. Minimal, ethereal passages are narcotically lengthened and crescendos of distortion are sustained well beyond the boundaries adhered to by many of their peers. Welcoming dense riffage washes over the listener referencing pan Asian themes, despair and musical manifest destiny. An evolving monster throughout its years, they started as mathrock, became more psychedelicized via dooom, now are breathing and churning like a shreiking metal Amon Duul II spewing forth soaring early Scorpions-esque solos contorted and out of control as a speeding train wreck towards Guru Guru land. "Heavy" by being beat/repetition heavy in a way that is practically reminiscent of electronic kraut discipline....yet just as loud and massive as ever.

Though only a few released records over the years, there has been and will remain, an emphasis on quality not quantity, and documented collaboration through time and people...as displayed by such varied cohorts as Eugene Robinson of Oxbow, Todd Hutchison of Seekonk, Tom Mahoney (JanMichaelVincentCarCrash), Mark York of Kevorkian's Angels, Jason Stewart of everything, Eric Brackett (Ocean), Shannon Allen (Moneycastasia) and the wonderful Gina Bartholemew of Acadia Recording Company.

However, Conifer is really what you call...a live band. Nuff said.

Hi [name]. I'm Marco from Italy and i'd like to introduce my electronic/ambient project to you: "Banshee Nova". I released my debut LP today and i'd be really happy if you would download it (absolutely for free, of course). It's some kind of a instrumental voyage through 2100 a.d Africa. Click here to reach download page or here to visit myspace page. As always, any comment, insult, praise, mail or salute is really appreciated.
