BEST BAND YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD OF: OTHER PASSENGERS
“to really get the full-effect of the group’s genius, catch them live…crashing guitars, slamming keyboards, creating deafening reverberation…with a feverish climax of rock and roll grace that has to be seen and heard to be believed." New York Metro
- NY Metro
“great from beginning to end…"Other Passengers are a new band that have been playing all over town and have gotten our favorite NYC blogs talking feverishly of something truly original and thrilling” ohmyrockness.com - Ohmyrockness.com
“…we love Other Passengers. Dramatic and chaotic, at one moment they’re loud and unhinged, the next, they’re bizarrely calm….it’s as amazing a live show as you will see this year”.L magazine - L Magazine
Other Passengers...epic, sweeping music has captivated audiences everywhere they've played. Other Passengers pinpoint, expand upon and move past their influences to create a layered sound that's all their own, something we'll coin "atmospherock".There aren't many other groups these days doing what they do. At least not this well. - Gothamist.com

Bio
Can, Bauhaus, Sonic Youth, early Pink Floyd, Eno, Spacemen 3. Their music is intensified in a live setting. Writhing, twisting movements epitomize the band on stage. They link together cohesive chaotic moments and transcendent catharsis on stage. The band celebrated entering 2005 by relocating to a new home/rehearsal space in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn and wrote the material for their first full length. Their first full length was recorded this past August just north of New Orleans minutes before Hurricane Katrina. The UK label Someting in Construction will be releasing the yet-to-be titled recoding this fall.
