PHILO AT THE B.O.M.A SATUDAY MAY 24TH.

About Me

Light years before the formation of Alpha Centauri, four explorers joined forces to form a masterpiece capable of doing battle against the accepted genre of modern sound. Their weapon, an aphotic and elusive perfection of music formed from the depths of the subconscious. Years pass, following its birth, as many predictions are told, many attempts are made to harness the instability of this weapon’s combined power. A single word is uttered from the mouths of our four heros resulting in a perfect balance of elements. They agree to name the weapon PHILO.
Scientists Corbin Thomas (vocals, guitar), Ryan Butcher (bass), Shawn Huff (drums), & Ryan Wilder (keyboards) internalize a fusion of ominous proportions derived from the meta particles of artists such as The Red Hot Chili Peppers, H.I.M., Radiohead, Muse & Tool.
