"A thoroughly heartfelt sonic explosion that spans music "types," their stage show and live music are bound to make them all kinds of fans... Spectator are on the verge of new music and presumably the big time." -ryanssmashinglife.com
"Coming from the rich Boston music scene, Spectator are a four piece rock tour-de-force... beautiful shimmering guitars bleed right into the stunning vocals for certified radio ready alternative rock that can be enjoyed by the masses." -explodinginsound.com
"Check out Spectator, and fall in love with the passionately dramatic vocals melding exquisitely with fervently executed instrumentation: fiery guitar supported by violently thrilling drums and killer bass licks." -rocknrollboston.com
"If they tighten their shit up a little they could be legitimately modest failures, perhaps even on a regional or national level... I shouldn’t razz these dudes too hard, because I appreciate their sincere attempt to create Real Music, and sometimes it even succeeds." -David Thorpe, somethingawful.com / slushpilemag.com
------------------------
Boston-based Spectator formed in 2006, and is comprised of Scott House (vocals), Jason Calieri (guitar), John Salogiannis (bass), and Joey Korenman (drums).
Spectator strive to creatively explore the alt-rock genre with a focus on tight songwriting, soaring melodies, and captivating tunes, and they transmit a unique sound that has been likened to Radiohead, Muse, U2, and Jeff Buckley.
In winter 2007, they headed to Applehead Studios in Woodstock, NY to record Your Scars with Michael Birnbaum and Chris Bittner (Coheed and Cambria, King Crimson, Bad Brains). The EP was released in spring 2008.
The band is currently playing shows in the Northeast, writing new material, and preparing to enter a studio in winter 2009-10 to record their newest songs.
