(1) A Progressive rock band, formed in late 2004 in Caracas, Venezuela, with the idea of making music without any kind of limits. Formed by three guitars, bass, keyboards and drums, adding a “cuatro” (typical venezuelan instrument) once in a while, you get to see a not so common line-up inside the standards of the genre.
Shortly after the inception of the band, in may 2005, they won the prestigious “Festival Alma Mater Rock” in Caracas, being the first instrumental band in getting that award. Through 2006, they kept on playing live shows and in 2007 they took a break from playing live so they could start working on their first album, which was due sometime around 2008. The album's name will be Nature/Existence and it should come out some time in 2009. Besides this, the band will be appearing in two compilation albums put together by Colossus Magazine (Finland) and Musea Records (France): Rökstenen: a tribute to Swedish progressive rock of the 70's and Paradiso based on Dante's Divine Comedy.
(2) An Ambient Post-Hardcore/Post-Metal project based in Winchester, UK.
Echoes formed in November 2010. Their debut album "Transcendent" is followed by their new album "The Pursuit" which can be purchased through iTunes or via their website.

Having only been the final line-up since the summer of 2010, their music has developed already into a more mature sound that nods at their contemporaries. Since the start of the self-produced album the band have worked solidly to promote themselves and have made several connections with promoters and other bands. Their music has been described as "perfect sweeping soundscapes", and they bring a fresh style to the young UK hardcore scene.
(3) A doo-wop group who charted in the United States with their hit "Baby Blue" in 1961.

(16) (Incorrect redirect) Echos, the Portland duo, fall into a genreless mist of both cinematic post-rock style instrumentation and left-of-center pop writing; paving a new path, and style along the way. Clash Magazine notes Echos are "Oddly infectious […] in an electronic haze”. Often self-referential and coated in bitter-romance lyricism, Echos brings the angst of 2006’s emo days and reinvents it with 2018’s anti-pop pop-music. Have been working with with online promotional mecca ‘MrSuicideSheep’ and his label ‘Seeking Blue’ for the last 3+ years – Echos has seen the fortune of millions of streams, impressions, and eyes on their music. Finding importance in the physical, Echos has not only seen gains digitally, but they have found themselves supporting large-room sold out tours with electronic acts like Illenium, on the festival stages of Electric Forest, Snowglobe, and more as well as a bus tour with Alternative metal good-boys ‘I See Stars’.
(17) A Berlin based post-punk/new wave band who formed in 2019 and released their first demo in July 2020. Their Bandcamp: https://echoesberlin.bandcamp.com/album/demo-2020

改札口をくぐり抜け
掲示板に匿名の伝言を残し
雑踏の中へとダイビングする
どうしても誰かに巡り合いたくて
赤信号の間中ずっと誰の背中に
声をかけようかと迷い
結局青信号で取り残されてしまう
諦めかけながらも
やさしい匂いを嗅いでまわり
プラットホームの上で
今夜も電車を見送ってしまう
高架の下 階段のくぼみ
地下水道へ通じるダクトの中
リサイクルショップの片隅に
僕は使い古され置き捨てられた
愛を見つけだしてははいずり回る
世界はヒトツになろう
としているのに
僕はいまだに一人で漂流している
東西に分断された壁が
音を立ててくずれた時
人々は街のスキマに逃げ込む
僕は逃げ遅れ
踊ってくれる人を探しながら
夜の街をさまよう
スキマではカップルが
抱き合いキスをしている
僕も混ざろうとするが
やっぱりはじき出されてしまう
うらやましすぎる 週末の賑わい
うらやましすぎる
週末のペッティング
傷みと友達になるしかないと
泣きながら友人が愛の現状について
拳を振り上げる
残された方法は
自殺か淘汰か回避か挑戦か
暫定的内閣の樹立か
あるいはカオスに満ちた雑踏の中
コインを投げて表か裏を
決めなくてはいけない
最終電車を乗り過ごした者達が
駅前広場を占拠する
24時間営業のドーナツショップで
仕方なしに朝を待っている間
他にする事がなくて
誰かが信じている神の声に
耳を傾けてしまう
考えたらいけません
思いつくのを待ちなさい!
想像してはいけません
ひらめくのを待ちなさい!
自惚れてはいけません
認められるまで待ちなさい!
悲しむのはやめなさい
笑えるまで待ちなさい!
隅っこのカウンターで
愛を語り明かしている
詩人達の声にも耳を傾けよう
どうして出会ってすぐに
全部見せようとするのよ
本心じゃないよ
本心なんかじゃないってば
お前の今度は絶対に
あてにならないんだからさ
会いたかった 会いたかった
会いたかった
いいんだよ いいってば
今のままの君で
あなたはいつだって自分の
都合でしか決めないのね
もう二度と 金輪際 永遠に 永久に
やっぱり愛してるよ
やっと分かったんだ
一緒にいたい 一緒にいたい
一緒にいたい 一緒にいたい
エンゼルクリームと
オールドファッションと
ツイストを苦くなったコーヒーで
胃に流し込み始発を待てずに
僕は再び眠らない
街角へと飛びだしていく
垂直に進化していく
ビィルディングの影を見上げ
愛情が退化していく
?市の奴隷達をかき分けて進み
人通りを突き抜けしがらみを交し
表通りを避けて
曲がりくねった道を
僕の住むアパートまで
目指して歩き始める
小さな翼を大きく広げて
確かに着実に前方へ上空ヘ
はばたき滞空して浮上しながら
太陽が東の空の果てを
赤く染め始めた頃
僕は白い息を吐きながら
現実と幻想の境界線を通過する
走れ 走れ 走れ 走れ 走れ 走れ
せり上がっていく
この自分自身の魂よ!
走れ 走れ 走れ 走れ 走れ 走れ

The lyrics of Echoes's song "WINGS" describe the feeling of loneliness and the longing for human connection, as the singer wanders around the city on weekends without a purpose. Through the bustling crowds and the flickering lights of the city, the singer is searching for someone to meet and connect with. However, despite their attempts to reach out to others and strike a conversation, they often find themselves being left behind at red lights or rejected by groups of people.
The song captures the feeling of being lost in a big city, where the noise and the lights can be overwhelming and the distance between people can feel insurmountable. The singer struggles to find a sense of belonging and is constantly searching for a way to connect with others, while grappling with their own insecurities and doubts. However, despite these challenges, the singer remains determined to keep searching and to keep trying to reach out to others, even if it means being rejected or left alone.
Overall, the lyrics of "WINGS" offer a poignant reflection on the complexities of modern urban life, where technology and social media can bring people closer together but can also create a sense of distance and disconnection between individuals.
