Specie Circular (EP NOW ON ITUNES)

About Me

Started in the spring of 2007 by drummer Jarret Nathan, and guitarists Vincent Morello and Billy San Roman, Specie Circular has gained a respectable following across Long Island thanks to their unique approach to instrumentation and technicality. After a recent lineup change, which included the departure of their original vocalist and the addition of bass player Zach Falkow, the band played through the spring and summer of 2008 as an instrumental act. The fall and winter brought with it the arrival of a new singer, Steve Mecca, and the release of Specie Circular’s first EP, Expansion, recorded at Sabella Studios in Roslyn Heights, New York. With alternative notes of Incubus, Circa Survive, and Radiohead, as well as creative elements “a la Dredg and The Mars Volta” (Fred Knittel, Music Director of WKDU Radio 91.7 FM Philadelphia) the quintet has developed a style they call "unique but familiar," and promises to explore and develop this subgenre to its fullest extent.
"the music the band produces is on another level. And it is honestly a completly new sound to my ears. This is what I like about Specie Circular, the band pushes the boundarys on the idea of 'normal' or 'regular' rock music. So the band is really a unique listen." -RockStopScene blog.
