Some odd combination of REM and Korn.
electronica progressive rock eclectic quartet strang anthemic
Artist picture
Eclectic, intelligent rock-driven tunes with big guitars and more than a hint of electronica give us a sound unlike any other band.
The Strang Quartet formed (officially) in Cambridge UK in 2003, consisting of long-time friends Martin (guitars and vocals) and Julian (drums, keyboards, guitars and production). Our mission statement: to make deep, meaningful, noisy sounds for the delectation of ourselves and others.

Story behind the song
It's about procrastination - never getting things done. I wrote it whilst waiting for people to pull their fingers out and getting frustrated. Geeky fact: 'Via Infinito' - The Never-Ending Road - is actually the name of a hidden level in a video game.
Lyrics
Verse 1. -------- Roll your eyes, roll the die Roll the rock, roll into a ball Roll a cig, spin the wheel Kill the time, sour the deal Tomorrow it will happen I promise Tomorrow is when it all comes together Tomorrow these rivers converge Tomorrow edge of forever Chorus. ------- Via Infinito. Via Infinito. Via Infinito. Verse 2. -------- Close the door, close the mind Close run thing, little white lie Open floodgates, open war Hope and glory, hope to fall There's a goal beyond my fingertips There's a day I can't specify There's a "yes" that never passed my lips There's a tear I'll never cry. (Chorus) Middle 8. --------- Why did I have to see the light tonight? Why did I not do what I knew was right? Sparks are flying in the dark Detonating memories The past was falling out of sight Attenuating history so why did i have to see the light tonight? Verse 3. -------- Cut the silence, cut the crap Count the daisies, take the slap Break your heart, break the chain Take the flak or take the pain. The world is just a grinding machine I'm a cog so very small There's a dream that went to sleep Watching eternity freefall. Via Infinito ...
