2013, Twenty-four months after the release of their critically acclaimed third album THE OCTOPUS, Amplifier are back with a brand new album ECHO STREET - their first with the new four-piece line-up. The band of Sel Balamir (guitars) and Matt Brobin (drums) re-emerge at the core of a very different animal - a four-piece line-up that has delivered a subtle shift in style allowing them to mix their epic space rock jams with accessible pieces boasting three-part vocal harmonies - sung by Sel, former Oceansize man Steve Durose (guitar) and Alex ´Magnum` Redhead (bass). ECHO STREET opens with four vast epics ,,Matmos", ,,The Wheel", ,,Extra Vehicular" and ,,Where The River Goes", and then shifts into more subtle and reflective territory; the haunting ,,Paris In The Spring" and the classy, CSN-like ,,Between Today And Yesterday", the Floydian infinity of the title track ,,Echo Street" before ending on the anthemic and uplifting breeze of ,,Mary Rose". It's probably the Amplifier album that most people will know with time.
