Saber is an electro/industrial duo (Eddie Riot and Frank Delamora) managed by friendselectric, the same people who also manage artists you may have heard of Zoot Woman and Larry Tee. Some of their more vocally songs are like if Depeche Mode and The Presets made sweet sweet love. Their harder tracks, which I'm more partial to, are definitely on the industrial tip. Their debut album is due for 2008, but I can't say much about it since two labels are currently viewing for the rights to it.

Bio
There is a sound that must be played so loud and it’s always been around. That sound is Saber which was originally created by Frank De La Mora and Eddie Riot as an alternative project to Frank’s already popular electronic band Echonine. Saber’s aim was to create a dark, modern, innovative, dance sound with global appeal. A group of songs were completed quickly since the 2 were already working together per Eddie producing E9’s Insomniac album. While still in the developmental stage a few promos were sent by previous manger Al Shaw formally of Friends Electric Booking and Management. The songs were met with great responses as “Some of their more vocally songs are like if Depeche Mode and The Presets made sweet love” Dani Deahl- D SQUARED (popular blog site) and listed often by popular Romanian dj The Model, (Gigolo records). The Model also giving similar comparisons on various online charts with quotes like “An emotional mix of DMX Crew sweet electro and mental Depeche Mode atmosphere”(DMCWORLD.com).
Soon after their first show the duo decided to form a full band adding drummer Sebastian Vasquez and acquired guitarist Miguel Lopez for his forward and innovative thinking and precision playing. Charlie Garcia (founder of Chicago’s FMEL) was soon added as the fifth member doing live visuals taking the show to the next level and making it an unforgettable sonic and visual experience. Early local success has come from a combination of Frank De La Mora’s already established Chicago popularity as a local electronic musician plus Eddie Riot‘s popular and frequent dj gigs during which exclusive Saber remixes are played. Last but not least, their rock-n-roll like performances of their explosive synth based songs mixed with electronic visuals making it a powerful fist pumping in the air experience. Be on the lookout for the debut album “LIVE LOVE DANCE DIE” fall 2009 and remember there is a sound that must be played so loud that’s always been around and that sound is Saber.
