Four people from distinctly different backgrounds, Not to Reason Why came together much in the same way a riot evolves. A determined group of people whose good intentions soon morph into something much more. Utilizing a variety of different backgrounds, this foursome represents a fully loaded arsenal. Not To Reason Why lures their audience into a relaxed malaise with pleasant piano riffs and encapsulates their souls with heavy rhythmic articulation and soaring guitar lines with some of the most intense post-rock stylings this side of Japan. This powerful quartet does not just captivate an audience, they clasp their very souls in a vice-like grip. At a NTRW show be prepared for utter destruction, but always hold the knowledge that soon you will be rebuilt close to your heart. When you hear their music, there is no outside world, you are at the liberating mercy of four extremely talented musicians you have likely never met before. It is this surrender and the following intense existential experience that makes a NTRW show a must see. Music, performed in this manner, represents more than just melodic sound. It is pure artistic expression, well worth checking out.
