History
Over the course of a
decade and several releases, Stellarscope has
developed a sound architecture that is
constantly evolving. Formed in the mid-90's, by
guitarist/vocalist Tommy Lugo, Stellarscope have
the rare ability to combine quality space-pop
and sonic-ly charged experimentation.
Influenced by music
ranging from classic rock, jam bands,
progressive rock, punk rock, psychedelic rock to
shoegaze, modern rock, and alternative; they
have an innate ability to create textured
soundscapes that border on the psychedelic with
emphasis in songwriting and expansion.
Unlike most bands of the
genre, Stellarscope relies heavily on straight
ahead vocal conviction, giving the songs a sense
of grounded-ness when the chaos of sound ensues.
They have consistently played the East Coast of
the USA & Canada for many years now, honing
they’re live, bliss-out sounds, astonishing
performances made of massive walls of sound, and
has released several full-lengths, EPs, and they
have also participate in various world wide
compilations and tribute albums. Bob Forman
joined Stellarscope in 1998 and has been
consistent member through-out the years. He
brings the element of progressiveness and power
to the sound. Pete Cohlert joined the band in
the winter of 2004 bringing with him a fresh
approach to music creation, beautiful
bass-lines, and an excellent groove oriented
vibe.
