Not much more can be said about the Skill of Lying besides amazing, their technical, melodic, and harmonic skills are well beyond their years. This up and coming band has nothing to lose and everything to gain. They have survived critical hits and changes in the line up only to come out stronger than ever, all in the span of about two years. These guys are like brothers and their closeness is reflected in the tightness and passion in their music. They are going places with their music which is as diverse as the band their most recent influences are similar to that of bands like Thrice, Coheed and Cambria, Finch and Local Boston heroes The Receiving End of Sirens and so many more. They are definitely worth checking out!
Why this name?
