Rishloo is a seminal independent progressive rock band from Seattle, formed in 2002. They are defined by a 'crossover prog' sound that bridges the gap between the technical complexity of Tool or The Mars Volta and the melodic accessibility of alternative rock.
Their career is marked by a fierce commitment to independence, having built a global following without major label support. The band's sonic identity centers on the extraordinary vocal range of Andrew Mailloux and the intricate, atmospheric guitar work of Dave Gillett. After a brief hiatus in 2012, the band reunited to release 'Living as Ghosts with Buildings as Teeth' in 2014, which saw them lean further into avant-garde and psychedelic territories. Critically, they are lauded for their dynamic range and Mailloux's ability to convey profound existential angst through theatrical delivery. They occupy a unique space in the 'New Prog' movement alongside peers like Karnivool and Fair to Midland, influencing a generation of independent artists with their DIY ethos and uncompromising technical standards.
