   About HUMANFLY
Interesting point of view:

Between post-metal, psychedelic post-rock and whatever ever other post-genre label gets writers juiced comes Leeds based riff merchants Humanfly. Formed in the early part of the decade and including people from well known Brits Canvas, Humanfly offer six vast, epic, metallic journeys through huge NeurIsis style heaviness and Pink Floyd via Mogwai atmospherics. However, where those bands have lately abandoned the crushingly heavy riffs that made them so appealing, for Humanfly it remains the focus. Tunes like “Echoes Of The Roman Empire” and “Tjanargata / A Passage To Reykjavik” are given ample space to breathe and build before inevitably crashing into a mountain of mammoth, celestial volume. With the shortest track more than 8 minutes and the longest over 13, each song is a two or three part saga within itself. Vocals are used sparingly focusing primarily on building thematically through the music. Not yet well-known outside their native UK, the release of II by 20 Buck Spin will introduce Humanfly to a larger audience and push the band to the forefront of the post-post-rockmetal “genre”. This CD version of II also includes two bonus tracks from their upcoming split LP with the UKs Queen Of Swords, for over an hour of music. - Courtesy of 20 BUCK SPIN

Nice music. Cool work!Stay on atrue way!Be friends?I want sometimes to write the same music,but ih ave no khowledges. - Courtesy of our latest fan.

Hæ HUMANFLY II - AVAILABLE ON CD!!! - ertí stuði?

Við vildum bara minni á að við spilum ekki á laugardaginn næsta á Hressó eins og áætlað var vegna .. jah, vitleysu. En við munum í staðinn halda feitt partí í buxunum okkar á föstudeginum 25. apríl á sama stað, Hressó. Endilega, ekki mæta á laugardaginn, sparaðu þig frekar fyrir 25. apríl .. það verður miklu skemmtilegra, við lofum!!

Sjáumst á dansgólfinu!
