Official press release:
Prosthetic Records is pleased to announce the signing of Chicago-based progressive experimental group, Without Waves. Formed in 2010, the band set out to write music with an open ended approach to songwriting. This attitude has helped Without Waves create a wildly varied sound with a foundation in heavy metal. After six years, that creed rings true as the band prepare to release their first major label full length with Prosthetic Records. Drummer Garry Naples says:
“We are beyond excited to be putting out our next album through Prosthetic Records. Prosthetic has a long, diverse history of great music and it is inspiring for us to join that roster. We cannot wait to get this album out and get out on the road to support it.”
Without Waves upcoming release is due out in early 2017 and further expands on their already eclectic sound. Singer Anthony Cwan says:
“Every record is an evolution for us. We experiment. We tinker. We have a sense of wonder. We stay true to ourselves and go with what feels right.”
Their diverse sound has given Without Waves a chance to share the stage with an equally diverse selection of bands including The Black Dahlia Murder, Scale the Summit, Anneke Van Giersbergen, Vattnet Viskar and Leprous – just to name a few. Though a relatively new band, the members themselves had been playing together in one form or another for over a decade prior to forming Without Waves. Their unique bond contributes to the diversity of the songs and their performance. Their live show is energetic, tight and, at times, free flowing, which only comes when players are 100% confident and respectful of each other.
