Welcome to the eye myspace page.
We have decided to call it a day and have disbanded. We would like to thank everyone who has helped us, got us gigs, put us up for the night, supported us, bought our cd's, had nice things to say to us, drank with us and to all the bands we've had the pleasure of playing with over the last 5 years.
We will keep this page alive and will shortly be adding a couple of unreleased tracks for download so please feel free to do so.
Please also take the time to check out our friends as there are some very good bands amongst them who need your support.
Thank you once again for your support.

Dundee's Eye could be called post-rock, however, its a fairly bland label for a band that is never less than enthralling, be they navigating through a gentle calm or riding the crest of a thunderous wave of sound. Although the compositions are fluid they hold your attention where many less able bands disappear into their own collective anus. Couple this with the intimacy the band conjure through lighting and your in for one of the most memorable performances you're likely to see in a small venue.
We've been reviewed in Skinny Mag
Purveyors of flawless post-rock, Eye were first up to test the acoustic resolve of the claustrophobic Henrys stage. Result? Soaring ambient passages, layered thick with instrumental emotion and hair-raising distortion-fed crescendos. Few on the live circuit can raise a crowd up in ethereal rapture and crash down again in a sensual overload of sound quite so adeptly.

EASTSTRIKEWEST (formerly known as Threemovements) - London based band who formed in 2007 from the remains of Threemovements. Epic post-rock in the vein of Devil Sold His Soul, Boards Of Canada & Explosions In The Sky. Already being tipped to be huge in 2008, this promises to be an interesting showing. www.myspace.com/eaststrikewestband
GASGIANT - Epic instrumental guitar based band who have been in existent for well over a decade. A sound both distinct and passionate, but not a million miles away from Mogwai and other such luminaries. www.myspace.com/gasgiant
FRIDAY NIGHT GUNFIGHT - Edinburgh based technical metal 5-piece. Succeeding in their attempts to bring together a sound not a million miles away from the likes of Ion Dissonance & Dillinger Escape Plan but also bringing in their ambient and alternative influences to provide an original spectacle. www.myspace.com/fridaynightgunfight
ARCHIVES- Excellent Dundee based act who play a mix of screamo and post-rock, hailing members from The Fall Of Boss Koala. You need to see this band. For fans of Envy, ISIS & Cease Upon The Capitol. www.myspace.com/archivesuk
