NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – April 20, 2018



For fans of Tool, Mastodon, Truckfighters, Kyuss, Pink Floyd

Prog-Sphere Premiere: Canadian Cinematic Prog HARNESSING THE UNIVERSE New Video “Beyond The Bright”

Created By German Filmmaker Joerg Steineck

The Cambridge English Dictionary describes the universe as ‘the whole system of created things.’ Well… Saskatchewan’s HARNESSING THE UNIVERSE are a band more than capable of living up to the infinite possibilities of their name, harnessing the power of the universe to create music of great spirit and originality. As the great Stephen Hawking memorably said, “Always look up at the stars not down at your feet!”

Inspired by Black Mountain, Stoned Jesus and Brant Bjork, the band’s sound is best described as “powerful, interesting, serious, spacious and epic! Meditation Music For Metalheads!”

With plans for their follow up album “In The After” in 2018 to their 2015 self-titled debut, HARNESSING THE UNIVERSE are sharing with fans one more music video to close that chapter before they begin the next.

Pairing up with Prog-Sphere.com, HTU is premiering their latest video for “Beyond The Bright”. A beautiful cinematic video created by German filmmaker Joerg Steineck.

“We are trying to bring the listener on a ride with us…Longer song lengths allow for peaks and valleys in the soundscape and the change in feel from upbeat to chill and back again in the course of the same track…We want to take the listener on a musical journey of epic highs and lows. It’s not party music! It’s something you put on when you’re thinking about life and you need a soundtrack to back up your thoughts.” says drummer Travis Weibel.

Discography:
2015 – Self Titled (LP)

The Cambridge English Dictionary describes the universe as ‘the whole system of created things.’ Well… Saskatchewan’s HARNESSING THE UNIVERSE are a band more than capable of living up to the infinite possibilities of their name, harnessing the power of the universe to create music of great spirit and originality. As the great Stephen Hawking memorably said, “Always look up at the stars not down at your feet!”

Inspired by Black Mountain, Stoned Jesus and Brant Bjork, the band’s sound is best described as “powerful, interesting, serious, spacious and epic!”.

Their upcoming album ‘In The After’ shows great progression from their 2015 self-titled debut.

“We are trying to bring the listener on a ride with us…Longer song lengths allow for peaks and valleys in the soundscape and the change in feel from upbeat to chill and back again in the course of the same track…We want to take the listener on a musical journey of epic highs and lows. It’s not party music! It’s something you put on when you’re thinking about life and you need a soundtrack to back up your thoughts.” says drummer Travis Weibel.

The band are psyched for fans to hear their new music.

“For true fans who can sink their teeth into it, they should really enjoy it. Lots to take in! The music will hit you in big waves if you are patient and hang on for the ride!”

In fact, HARNESSING THE UNIVERSE have created their own genre of music.

“We’ve evolved into better players. That’s caused our music to grow into larger than life songs… Meditation Music For Metalheads!”

Live is the natural environment of a proud jam band.

“You can expect the whole spectrum of sound. Expect five passionate artists who have spent their life honing their craft…for you! From ambient noise to a wall of sound that will blow you away!”

HARNESSING THE UNIVERSE’s debut album is available on  iTunes, Amazon and the HTU Online Store.
