Bio:
The follow-up to 2008's "Anything That Comes to Mind" is scheduled for release on CD and vinyl December 7th, 2010. The new album, "Reverie", was recorded by James Anderson at 6 Nassau in Toronto and features some different instrumentation than their debut. While "Anything That Comes to Mind" was full of dynamic instrumental songs mainly based around guitar, bass and drums (with the addition of violin on select tracks), the new recordings expand on the band's sound to include additional instruments such as piano, organ, accordion, glockenspiel, and melodica. Though "Reverie" does share a lot of the qualities of their debut, with songs varying from ambient soundscapes (bringing to mind Stars of the Lid or Sigur Ros) to a distorted wall of sound (recalling My Bloody Valentine or Mogwai), often in the course of one song.
Although much of the past year was spent writing, re-writing and recording new material, Epigram was able to premiere a lot of these new songs at the Pitter Patter Festival in 2009 and 2010, playing both the Drake Hotel and the Horseshoe Tavern, at the 2009 NXNE Festival sharing a bill with No Age, as well as supporting Junius and Romance of Young Tigers in Toronto on their North American tours. The band is now planning a number of shows after the release of "Reverie" (including an album release show at the El Mocambo on December 10th) in Ontario and Quebec to support the new album.

After flirting with depression in 2011, 2012 is already looking brighter… and more productive. Here's the first clip from the SINATRA Highway tour, with scenes from various performances throughout the Australian outback sewn together. Please share everywhere if you like it :)

guitar in Nostradamus is emotional sounding. Liked the distant synth lines. Really well blended. Epic wall of sound. Keep in touch, Jere
ALTESS : 2ND ALBUM AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL VERSION
CMW review in Exclaim Magazine "The band played well, building each of their songs up to massive heights before bringing them crashing down under walls of distortion. But Epigram were able to keep each song fresh, adding new elements like bells, a second snare drum and even a harmonium, delivering a solid performance"
Dear Myspace friends,
I could really do with your help releasing my first CD, SINATRA. It's availble on pre-release at seldomparty.bandcamp.com
Any pre-ordered cds will come with a drawing and a thank you note, and the money raised will enable the actual cd to be made.
Loads of thanks,
Will
Great show last night guys. Spinning the vinyl now. Sounds epic!
hey there I enjoyed the gentle melodies in Waking to Wake Up. Sentimental and a little depressing but harmonic. Take care and keep in touch, Jere
