Description

An adventurous and neurotic blend of metal, spy themes, quirky jazzy passages and powerful orchestrated sections. The energy of metal with the dramatic edge of film music and the sophistication of progressive rock.

Notes

Cinematic progressive metallers Opensight are proud to present their EP Ulterior Motives. “Alibi” is the lead track, introducing the band’s neurotic blend that has drawn comparison to Faith No More, Cynic and similarly eclectic bands, along with the band’s healthy appreciation of film composers in a variety of styles (see for instance the classic James Bond-esque break in the track).

Rolling Stone commented that the musicis “quirky, jazzy and even has a Spy-themed bridge section.”

Praise for Opensight
“Despite how many bands pop up every day, very few actually dare to go beyond the “accepted” handful of influences and elements that can be brought into the music. That’s why what Diablo Swing Orchestra, Unexpect and (now) Opensight do is so damn important. They bring variety to a music that would otherwise risk falling into creative stagnation.” -
Metal Blast

“How to keep your metal both “human” and “animal” at the same time? It is a subversion that many have tried to achieve (Metallica, Carcass or Mastodon, among the ones that have succeeded)and it appears throughout this first full length from Opensight.” - Rolling Stone South America.

"It really takes something unique to set a prog band apart these days. Opensight, however, are a different band entirely; having carved their own unique sound, their upcoming EP Ulterior Motives will be one to check out."


Bio:
Originally starting the band in Colombia, Ivan (Guitars/Vocals) moved to the UK to progress his vision of Opensight. Joining with Gen (guitars), Danni (bass) and finally Redd (drums) the combined styles formed the sound of the present day Opensight. With influences from across musical genres, what started life as a prog metal focused band has evolved into a more dynamic concept, combining the energy of metal, the sophistication of progressive rock and the dramatic edge of film music.
