Formed in late summer of 2004, separation of self is composed of talented musicians from former regional acts of the salt lake city area.With members having shared the stage with national acts such as: Flaw, 40 Below Summer and ill Nino previous to s.o.s. Through out the years Separation of Self have also achieved show opportunities with, SNOT Machine Head, Hed p.e, Sonic Syndicate, Scars of Tomorrow,Dark tranquillity, Firewind, Threat Signal, Sybreed, The Agonist, Gojira, Still Remains, OTEP, Life of Agony, Mudvayne, American Head Charge, Amon Amarth, Himsa, BloodSimple, single bullet theory, Periphery and Divine Heresy to name a few. Separation of Self's following continues to grow everyday with an ever expanding internet network of friends and also gaining fans with each show they perform. Experienced in the scene, with members holding years of musical knowledge, this 5 piece has made an impact on the Utah map. Major radio support from local stations, soaring cd sales and continued touring of the mid and mountain west thus far, is just the tip of the ice berg for their bright looking future.
In fall of 2006 separation of self was introduced to the project independent metal showcase. This program is based out of Los Angeles and is designed to get a featured artist band, chosen by fans via votes, on the road and exposed to the masses. One year after being entered into the showcase the fans spoke out and voted for separation of self to be the fall 2007 featured artist. They dominated each and every round of voting. Round one they beat out 6 of the 16 bands by an amazing 44% of votes. In round two there were 10 bands left and they once again dominated making it into the the top 5 and final third round. And in the final round separation of self over-whelmed the polls with 207,623 votes at 49.7% of total votes.
"SEPARATION OF SELF (Salt Lake City, UT) has been selected by the fans to be the FALL 2007 FEATURED ARTIST and truly do demonstrate that amazing things can happen when people come together"
Jeff Totten – CEO National Event Coordinator West Coast Operation
""Separation of Self is a band just waiting to be discovered. I’d much rather listen to this album than what Killswitch Engage or All That Remains have put out lately. It’s catchy, it’s heavy, and just a well played, produced and arranged album. It’s no wonder the guys have created a big following in Utah."
–Bryer Wharton- S.L.U.G Magazine
With their freshman release, "Caldera", in 2005 being a huge success, Separation of Self has perfected the process of molding and fine tuning material for their second record "reSolve"released in 2007 under EvO/Fontana. This album promises to be more evolved, brutal and intricate than the last, with the talent scale and ideas being limitless. With nothing seeming to be in their way, Separation of Self is pulling out all the stops and looking only forward to the future. The combination of heart pounding drops, intricate leads, relentless rhythms and dynamic vocals, makes this band a well-rounded group. With influences ranging from iron maiden and meshuggah to pink floyd and alice in chains, their musical talents put forth a roller coaster of tension and resolve..............
