Overview of Oblivion is the Sky:
Oblivion is the Sky is a Progressive Rock Experiment. With concepts ranging from abyssal depths of the human mind to the collapsed perspective of transcending individuality. At times direction drifts off into acoustic ponderings and others into bass/drum rhythms lurking near the shadows. Different thought for different emotions strike passages of breaking light of the lost embracing lust for impression.

Albums:

Red Abyss Album:
This is a saga of the "Traveler" of which a lot of the themes of the Project seem to be based on.  The Instrumentals "Red Abyss" and "Liquid Silver Eyes" greatly pull the album together in its transition from a dark and cold theme to a aquatic atmosphere.  Red Abyss is Oblivion is the Sky in it truest epic form. The music spawns from visions seen through medication and like experiences. This album tells the story of a traveler who voyages into the realms of his own inner space. The album as a whole tries to convey a surreal state, in which a confused minded man, retreats the world in a quest to make his own in the depth of the mind. His state is dark, as his thoughts were as he feel asleep, then his dream retreats into aquatic peace.

Dimensions Album:
This album is very dark and very instrumental although it is not an instrumental album.  Each song is a progression to the next with all elements of the album blasting in your ear in the final weird coda that blends arrangements and samples from techno, electronica, and almost the kitchen sink.  This album in even the bleakest mind could at least be called interesting.

Aquatic Serene Album:
This is an acoustic session recorded in January 2004.  This is Oblivion is the Sky in  very rare raw form.  This album is a real departure from the electric epics but the feeling is still  very compelling.

Anyone still reading after the first paragraph has no love for the english language or is able to be talked into anything.

Maybe your music is great, folks, but your communications skills convey the image of of a drunken freshman english major.

How about a "this is our band, here's the link" instead of all that embarassing disjointed hype?
