Thank You! and Good Night!

About Me

GESTALT - n.A physical, biological, psychological, or symbolic configuration or pattern of elements so unified as a whole that its properties cannot be derived from a simple summation of its parts.

Gestalt formed at the eve of the 20th century, debuted in 2001 and evelved until boxing day 2006. Once a three piece (Krease, Leevai & Jason), the band grew to five members, all of whom brang vastly diferent influence to the product.

Between the five of us, we listen to almost everything from Metal to Rock to Glitch to Industrial to Folk to Skip Hop to Punk and all that's inbetween. This tends to reflect in our music. We've tried not to pigeon-hole ourselves:

We want to thank everyone who supported us over the last six years.
