Description
Fivestar Riot's complex arrangements, high energy performance, musical talent and pop-sensibility set them apart from the average teen band, creating a unique, refreshing and memorable sound. Keep your eye on this young band as they have a bright future. Formed in the summer of 2001, the band atarted as a fairly typical pop-punk act taking it's inspiration from Green Day, Saves the Day and Weezer. Since then, the band has cultivated a loyal following in Rochester, NY and has developed a more mature sound and compositional style, leaning more toward Jimmy Eat World and Death Cab for Cutie but maintaining it's edgier Saves the Day style. Their third release, a five song EP titled "Unfamiliar Sky", was conceived and produced during the lead singer and song writer's battle with cancer, and conveys hope and optimism in the face of adversity. Unfamiliar Sky was recorded at The Illuminata and was engineered by Seven Head Division front man Brian Moore and Jesse Sprinkle of Poor Old Lu fame (Alarma Records & Tooth and Nail).
