Invoking the Abstract is a four piece instrumental band hailing from Columbia S. Carolina. In 2010 guitarists and founding members Tyler Ivey and Evan Garner started composing music for their new project. After the release of their extremely well taken EP in 2012, they joined forces with percussionist Ryan Meadows and bassist Joseph Carrobatta. They recently recorded their first full length album, entitled Aural Kaleidoscopes, at The Basement Recording Studios with Jamie King (Between the Buried and Me, The Contortionist, Scale the Summit). The band prides itself on using various approaches to rhythm, phrasing and playing styles that conveys a sound that traverses genres. Their broad style, containing both soaring guitar solos and groovy mixed meters, creates a blend of catchy hooks accompanied by churning technical metal which reaches new heights of originality.
