Scope

"He said he had Eleven Eyes, but he lied, he only had one, and it opened full lotus when the music began" - Monk Metz "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 Eyes" have been playing steadily, touring through Oregon, California, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Nevada and elsewhere. Scope reflects all of this road experience, the grooves are deeper, and more chances are taken. The new material ranges from the experimental techno of Tintinnabulation and Elevator Jazz; The hip hop/drum 'n bass/avant big band hybrid of Full Lotus, one of two tunes featuring rapper Monk Metz, the prog-fusion of Capgun Slinger, the New Orleans-style strut of R Bop; the Afrobeat-inspired Rogue Convoy; and the Henry Mancini-meetsJohn Zorn spy jazz of the Man From E.L.E.V.E.N. Oh yeah, theres a tango in there too.
