I stumbled upon this topic in the Unsigned Bands forum today: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73805" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=73805 , where the band were introduced to us by Windwaker on 04th December 2010.   http://www.facebook.com/damoxt7942" rel="nofollow -
 
Other influences are quoted as Circa Survive, Lark, The Bad Plus, D'Angelo, John Frusciante, & Porcupine Tree.
 
They released a seven track self-titled EP, firstly over in Istanbul back in June (having had a very successful recent tour there), and then in the US in September this year.
 
It can be downloaded free from bandcamp.com: http://helicopria.bandcamp.com/" rel="nofollow - http://helicopria.bandcamp.com/

Seems like a decent shout for crossover to me - they remind me a bit of Panic Room, only without the keyboards.
 
Edit: One bad link removed, and the YouTube vids - which were no longer available.

Sounds like a fine candidate for crossover. I'll alert the team.

Here are some more YouTube vids of studio versions of stuff from the EP, and one of them playing on Turkish TV during their tour over there earlier this year:
 
Edit: All tubes have now been removed from YouTube, so I've deleted the embedded links.
