The Custodian is the UK's newest and most exciting progressive rock band. Formed in late 2012, the band is already primed to
release their debut offering "Necessary Wasted Time" this summer via The Lasers Edge. The band is lead by British musician
Richard Thomson, better known as the vocalist of progressive metal group Xerath. The project was initially started in a bedroom
in Warwickshire and has now, after several years of lying dormant due to other commitments, become a fully fledged band ready
to take the prog rock world by storm. Commenting on the release, Richard states "I love so many types of music, it was
impossible for me not to start something completely different from my other band. I have a particular affection for progressive
music from the 70's and wanted to create something in that vain, and hopefully, something new and exciting!" The band takes
influence not only from prog rock, but anything and everything else that fits. Expect lots of beautiful acoustic passages, warm
synth, tasteful leads, complex drumming and great production. The album was recorded by the band in their home studio, mixed
by Danish producer Jacob Hansen and mastered by Bob Katz. The artwork was created by British artist Colin Marks of Rainsong
design. The Custodian are: Richard Thomson: Drums, Vocals, SynthMichael Pitman: Bass, VocalsOwain Williams: Lead
