Welcome to the Flood Empty Lakes myspace page. Flood Empty Lakes is a progressive rock quartet from Charleston, SC. Our premium blend of ambient, mystic, emotronic-sonic rock is epic in sound and vast in scope. The vision for Flood Empty Lakes is to unify harmonies that are beautiful and melodic with compositional elements that build, crescendo and release. We draw our influences from many artists and experiences ... the process is always evolving. We are grateful for every moment. Thanks for taking a trip with us.
"Flood Empty Lakes is like The Blue Man Group doin' The Robot to convey the Zen of German Bauhaus, but without the dark trappings, sharing stage with a ballerina in white celebrating the beauty of Versailles. There's a lot going on here, as diverse influences, ranging from Electronica to Prog Rock, come together to meld an at-times atmospheric, at-times in-your-face heterogeneous mixture. It's strong coffee and wine and a chocolate shake all at the same time. Like black-and-white photography giving one mental freedom from the conventions and boundaries of color, Flood Empty Lakes do the same for your brain by relying on their instrumentation to get their message across. Refreshing." Mark Staples, Tone & Groove Magazine
"Choosing to forgo vocals and opting for a strictly instrumental sound, local progressive-rock quartet Flood Empty Lakes has interjected new flavor into the Charleston music scene. With ambient tracks that profess deep crescendos, heavy guitars and dynamic keys, its sound evokes popular experimental groups such as Mogwai and Red Sparowes. The self-described perfectionists spent 10 months tirelessly fine-tuning their sound before performing their first featured gig. The quartet's tunes are rapidly garnering attention from music connoisseurs across the Lowcountry." Lisa Ryan, Special to the Post & Courier
