about

"ellipsis" celebrates Ellipsis' three years of music-making by bringing together the band's best work to date in one collection.

New mixes to five previously-released tracks meet six brand new tracks and whilst the genres are as varied as the usual Ellipsis release -- winding from pop to rock to spoken word to epic instrumentals -- the sound is much more refined than anything the band has released before.

Self-indulgent pop is accompanied by social commentary and lyrical writing which has (finally) matured. Ten originals and one cover.

It's still instantly Ellipsis, just now grown up a little.
