Umbra Within was founded by guitarist and composer Justin Clauser.
After the all too common line-up shuffling that nascent bands endure, a
stable line-up was found in early 2004. The band's principle endeavor is exploration. We strive to cultivate
a sound free from narrow-mindedness and redundancy. Ultimately, we focus on
collective maturation more then any pinpoint on our timeline so we cannot promise to
ever be the same band we are today. To those intrigued and those intrepid, we cordially
invite you to experience the flux.
