   About SAROS
Saros weave together life experience with its reflection in the world of dreams to conjure a powerful yet bleak and tragic sound-scape of isolation, madness, power and corruption. Driven by a creative tension that finds its clearest expression in the dueling lead-work of Ben Aguilar and Leila Abdul-Rauf, the riffs maintain a balance between force and grace, the solos often becoming as much a narrative as the lyrical threads woven together. This juxtaposition of force and form is audible on every track of Five Pointed Tongue, the band’s first full length released on Hungry Eye records in 2006. Beneath it all, the thunderous rhythm section of Tim Scammell on bass and drummer Blood Eagle maintain the heart and pulse of the Saros sound. The band's growth and progress is evident in epic proportions on their second full-length, Acrid Plains, which was released in early 2009 by Profound Lore.

Great show last night! Except I got totally drenched by a full beer during the second song, and the Bay Bridge fiasco, what a fucking nightmare. Almost out of gas, car overheating and stuck on the bridge for over an hour. In the end, all was fine. No blown head gasket, didn't run out of gas but it was close! LOL
I only filmed F Sub Zero. Too many people in front of me and I was all sticky from the beer. LOL

It's been great seeing you guys all these times, since the first record release show. I hope you continue on, and wish Tim the best in his other projects.

Later,
Phil

Hope you can make it out to Paganfest this Saturday! Billy's doing our live sound, so come on down and shoot the shit with us and Mister Anderson. We really need to put a show together with you Saros folks sometime... seems like a no-brainer to us.
