Bio / Background
"He said he had Eleven Eyes, but he lied, he only had one, and it opened full lotus when the music begun." -Monk Metz
"Just made for my ears - think Headhunters meet Mahavishnu Orch (much of the playing bears comparison imho) with turntablism - turbo-fusion for the 21st Century..." -Boombastic Radio
"Combining an array of influences including John Coltrane, Frank Zappa and DJ Logic, Eleven Eyes transforms a cornucopia of sound into infectious compositions that overwhelm the limitations of any single genre." -Josh Lintereur, Oregon Daily Emerald Pulse
Scope is the second disc from Eugene, Oregon's Eleven Eyes. Since releasing their first disc, 2003's Depth Perception, the band has been playing steadily, traveling all over the Northwest, California, Idaho, Montana and Colorado. The material on Scope reflects all this experience, the grooves are deeper, the tunes are more diverse, and more chances are taken.
↓ more ↓The new material ranges from the experimental techno of "Tintinnabulation" and "Elevator Jazz" to the hip hop/drum 'n bass/avant big-band hybrid of "Full Lotus", one of two tunes featuring rapper Monk Metz, from the prog-fusion of "Capgun Slinger" to the New Orleans-style strut of "R Bop", from the Afrobeat-inspired "Rogue Convoy" to the Henry Mancini-meets-John Zorn spy jazz of "The Man From E.L.E.V.E.N." Oh, yeah, there's a tango in there too.
