About Megacone
Megacone are a 5 piece instrumental band from Wicklow/Westmeath, formed in November 2013. The band are best known for their triple lead guitars and energetic live show, they combine strong, memorable melodies with addictive grooves and ambient soundscapes.The band started when five music students (on the Popular Music course at Ballyfermot College) collaborated on a project of total musical freedom. With each member bringing a different pallet of musical tastes and abilities to the band, the result is an incredibly unique range of sounds that can appeal to anyone. MEGACONE have an ear catching sound with their triple lead guitars and their immersive original compositions. The band released their first EP “Fondle Fantasy” on January 31st 2015 to a sold out crowd, in The Mercantile, Dublin.
The five-piece’s post-rock/tech metal sound lands somewhere near Scale The Summit’s pitch, but there’s Animals As Leaders in that yop-worthy Absolute Magnitude, and The Aristocrats’ cheeky fusion fun in proggy polka Dance Of The Sand Wizard. With the rougher edges yet to be filed down, their smartly structured instrumentals are served up with a Primus-y twinkle in the eye.
