Conscious Structure

About Me

Conscious Structure is a fusion of styles often compared to bands such as Nine Inch Nails, Portishead, Radiohead, Curve, The Cure, Massive Attack and Tori Amos. CS seamlessly mixes rich, lush arrangements of violin, cello and synthesizer with trippy breaks, hard industrial sounds, ripping guitars and 80's goth influenced dreamy atmospheres.
Based in Washington, DC, Conscious Structure features multi instrumentalist and cellist Dave Belazis, pianist, violinist and lead vocalist Tenoya Bennett, guitarist Zach Davis, drummer Ernesto Perez, and cellist David Thomas.
The band broke into the DC music scene in 2001. In 2002, their album Non-Human Figure was released and Conscious Structure continued to build their following playing a variety of venues from DC's U Street corridor to CBGB's Gallery in NYC.
Now in 2007 Conscious Structure is preparing the release of their second album, Universal Antithesis, another full length recording, this time featuring 13 original songs. Release date: Tuesday, May 1st, 2007
Available now right here on our Myspace Music Store (take a listen in the player below): Universal Antithesis, our new full length album, a unique musical experience similar to NIN, Portishead, Tori Amos, Massive Attack and Conjure One.
DOWNLOAD ALL 13 TRACKS FOR $9.99
The Moment Single available right here on our Myspace Music Store. The Moment Single features: The Moment (album mix), Consequence (bleak future mix) and Beneath The Dusk (acoustic). DOWNLOAD ALL 3 TRACKS FOR $1.99
