Fractal Pattern was a group of 5 people from Oil Country Canada that played instrumental music for roughly five years. Their formative time was spent writing music, playing 150 shows around North America and selling over 1000 copies of their first record, 'No Hope but Mt. Hope'.

Using guitars, bass, drums, a French horn and a variety of secondary instruments, the band recorded and released their second full-length album, 'Absent From but Entirely Within the Landscape'. Their sophomore album intended to challenge the listener not only to open up to songs that deviate from the current punk rock mean, but to question their role as a steward of the planet. Clocking in at just short of an hour, the album is the best representation of a band that has struggled to find their identity within a musical landscape dominated by the trite output of the commercial music industry, while trying to maintain a positive outlook in creating music that can be seen as something more than a simple commodity. The album was also printed on recycled paper using biodegradable, soy-based inks.
