Disconnect - "Obscuros"

Disconnect is an American prog duo consisting of:

Erich O'Dell (me):  guitars, bass, keyboards, voices
Brian Eschrich:  drums, percussion

We've played music together for nearly 20 years and Disconnect is the latest incarnation of our collaborative efforts.  We officially formed in December 2009 and, since that time, have written & recorded two full-length albums as well as an EP.

Our first album ("Radio Hostile") is a concept album and was released in May, 2010.  In August we released an EP entitled "Fragments", which consisted of songs we recorded during the sessions for "Radio Hostile" that we opted to drop from the final mix.  We cut these songs as we felt they did not totally fit the concept of "Radio Hostile".  The songs on "Fragments" are also decidedly more mainstream and straightforward than our other material. 

We released our follow-up album "Obscuros" in November 2010, which is being reviewed in Progression Magazine's upcoming issue (issue #61).  "Obscuros" is also in playing rotation on Aural Moon and ProgRockRadio.

We've recently been added as a Crossover Prog artist here at PA and would love to get feedback on all of our recordings from the forum.

The songs from "Radio Hostile" and "Obscuros" are streamed here at PA on our artist page:

As the material from "Fragments" has not been uploaded to PA for streaming audio, you may download "Fragments" in its entirety here at Mediafire:

   much appreciated, welcome Brian ...

Well both 'Obscuros' and 'Radio Hostile' are available as streaming audio here at PA on our artist page, also at our MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/disconnecttheband).

....And of course they are available for downloadable purchase at iTunes, Amazon.com, etc.   

However if you're not able to stream the live audio feeds for some reason, we can provide you a download link for the albums.  Just let us know.

Thanks!
