The Surfacing is: Ryan R. Miller - guitars, bass, vocals, programming, arrangements, samples, glitch & cuts, solos Marco Sanchez - guitars, bass, vocals, programming, arrangements, samples, keys, glitch & cuts Josh Mortensen - vocals The Surfacing is a futurist musical project that stylistically builds its 'future school' sound off progressive rock, extreme metal, intelligent electronica, cyber/industrial, post rock/metal, symphonic, experimental, fusion, and ambient underpinnings. We hail from the Portland-Vancouver metro area in Oregon/Washington. We're here to do conceptual/heavy/epic music in drastically different ways. I can only describe our approach as a Venn diagram overlapping of several genres, the overlap being a place were we re-invent each genre's respective approach in ways that said genre's traditionalists would probably not like.
