"The song "Hubris" from

Aethellis takes the forms and feel of classic progressive rock and incorporates a contempary rhythmic feel along with other influences such as funk and techno. The Aethellis album was spearheaded and recorded in 2002/2003 by classically trained keyboardist/vocalist/hack guitarist/Narcissist Ellsworth Hall and has many influences including power-chord rock, jazz and even hip-hop. This either represents wide tastes or an inability to focus. He puts this genre wanderlust to good use in his soundtrack work with Ellsounds.
Veterans of several bands (most noteably Logos / Affinity in the 80s), the live performing members have been playing tunes from the Aethellis album in addition to other originals by several members that ego-maniac Ellsworth grudgingly allowed. The band also performs classic rock covers so that the audience recognizes SOMETHING.
