Closure In Moscow, a relatively new rock band hailing from Australia. The band comprises lead
vocalist Chris De Cinque, drummer Beau McKee, guitarist and vocalist Mansur Zennelli, bassist
Brad Kimber and guitarist Michael Barrett.

Only 18 months after first forming, Closure in Moscow signed to Taperjean Records and released
their debut EP (self-proclaimed 'albumette') in 2008, titled The Penance and the Patience. They
have established a name for themselves with an array of shows in their home country alongside
international acts such as Saosin, Coheed and Cambria, Aiden, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, A Static
Lullaby, Street Drum Corps, and Unwritten Law. The band's debut studio album, First Temple, was
released in May 2009.

The band has been compared to other experimental and progressive rock acts The Mars Volta and
Circa Survive by music website, Absolute Punk. Additionally, they have been likened to post-
hardcore band Chiodos, and defined as having "more in common with complex, seasoned bands like
Rush and Tool than they do with fellow Aussie rockers AC/DC".

Their style has been described as a "catchy, yet melodic, brand of progressive, avant-garde rock"
by Kill Your Stereo.
