   About [this is radio silence]






"Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades; Past the near meadows, over the still stream, Up the hill-side; and now 'tis buried deep. In the next valley-glades: Was it a vision, or a waking dream? Fled is that music:—do I wake or sleep?" - John Keats



[this is radio silence] is the solo project of sonver guitarist and former earth loop recall frontman ben mclees. conceived in 2006, [tirs] has for the most part been a studio-only side project, with limited output.

as of september 2009, [tirs] has become a full-time project, with a series of releases (including at least one album) currently being worked on.

in 2010, [tirs] will become a full band project, with live dates to coincide with album releases.

ELR dude!

Glad to hear you're still making ace musics :) I'm always alerted when I see the likes of Dark Star and Mikrokosmos in someone's list of influences!
