"Oli, with a degree in music technology, takes care of the production side of things and his training and skill shines through as he fires up the 1st track – “Upon The Gears†– from the band’s forthcoming EP.
An acoustic intro overlays a spoken word sample by US free speech activist Mario Savio which gives the track its name and highlights the political undercurrent which runs beneath Visperas music.
This isn’t heavy-handed “music with a message†stuff though, as the track then gives way to some accomplished riff-driven guitar, crashing drums and powerful bass, tightly wound together into an impressive alt-prog whole."
Keith D - Edinburgh Spotlight (Nov 2009)
"Those bands were all blinding - Visperas seem to be getting better every time i see them. Their new stuff is fantastic - mogwai-esque tribal prog rock... I always love the rhythm that those guys have and they are always tight as hell too. I see that many bands these days, it really is refreshing to see a band so talented."
