Degrees Of Separation

Layout Created at KillerKiwi.net
You know it’s funny when something incredible is about to happen, there’s a certain buzz in the air, an exhilarating but tense feeling is about to overcome your body. That feeling from 1986 when Queen were at their peak and when Van Halen was shredding so hard it made the human soul cry. Take a moment for yourself because it’s all about to happen again…welcome to a galaxy far far away where “Degrees of Separation” belong. This is an intense breed of the human vocal melee, exuberant guitar engineering, blatant downbeat drumming, thunderous bass chops and enough charisma from the fire within this mob of enigma to turn any planet inside out. I’m sure wherever Freddie Mercury is, he is giggling with glee as this is an outfit which could easily match Queen. Strap yourself in and be ready. This band is going to have you shaking your body, grooving on the dance floor and jumping with excitement. If that doesn’t tickle your fancy, take critically acclaimed and world renowned engineer Mark Opitz (INXS, AC/DC, KISS) at his word: “Good Sound…very impressed”
You’re in a galaxy far far away now…
Welcome to Degrees of Separation.

WE WON! WE WON! WE WON!!
Thanks to Bree from the Degrees of Separation Crew for her review below:
"Hey there guys, this is Bree checking in with a Degrees of Separation gig report....and what exciting news it is!!!
Well after much anticipation leading up to such a HUGE competition, the boys won their preliminary heat in the 'Dragging The Lakes' showcase last Wednesday night. DOS put on one of their finest performances yet at the Espy Basement, in front of their very loyal group of fans!! (Thanks so much guys, we love you!)
Their set started with a bang in the shape of YOU KINGS AND QUEENS! That was nothing compared to what was coming next, with ZEP ME TO TEARS bringing the house down. ACTIONS AND CONSEQUENCES followed, with its most passionate performance yet!
While the crowd was cooling down, the brutal riff of DEGREES OF SEPARATION was unleashed! Things slowed down a little with THIS TIME, but the night wasn’t finished there.... SADNESS PART 2 signalled the beginning of the end, segueing perfectly into the final act of the set, SADNESS PART 3. It’s always brings a dramatic end to the show, and once again it failed to disappoint!
MVP of the night would be a tie between Beau, who thumped the HELL out of his drums, and Markus, who sang until his throat was like a vulture’s crotch! Lol, seriously!
Well onto the next round the boys will go, so make sure to stay tuned for when that MASSIVE NIGHT will be and keep an eye out for when the boys will next be playing around the greatest rock city, MELBOURNE!
‘Til next time....Rock on Always,
Team Leader -
The DOS Crew."
