"Check Point"
The Unseen Guest/2007
www.unseenguest.com
This international duo not only blends the sounds of east and west in their music; they also are a meeting of that diversity in forming their band The Unseen Guest. Band members are Australian Declan Murray and Armith Norayan of India.
"Check Point" is an eleven track album that is the second offering from The Unseen guest. Billed as an alternative band The Unseen Guest is alternative only in that they offer an alternative to the cookie cutter music permiating the airwaves.
Fans of the song "Little Red Riding Hood" will find something familiar and likable from this duo. The Unseen Guest is somewhat similar in musical flair to Pink Floyd or The Pet Shop Boys only without all the electronic instruments and the boys list water bottles and miscellaneous percussion on their instrument list. While using predominately string instruments and percussion with a lot of rhythms and syncopated beatrs The Unseen Guest is much like percussion and rhythm virtuosos Stomp who admittedly use everything including the kitchen sink as their instruments.
The Unseen Guest are in a class all by themselves when it comes to creating and playing Their instrumental music where east meets west.
