"We are STRYDER and we are from outer space! We have been set on a path to blow peoples minds with psychedelic rock and roll!"
STRYDER began when the suns rays passed through a Kaleidoscope upon four young boys from the sunshine coast. This gave birth to the rich, moist, colourful sounds of psychedelic rock and roll which the band create. With the release of their new ep 'Kaleidoscope', their music has become an aphrodisiac to music lovers of the world.

There are several bands with the name (Fractal): 1) Most of the tracks you can play here are from the instrumental debut CD Continuum, released in 2003 by the San Jose CA based progressive rock band Fractal. Their website is www.fractal-continuum.com. Fractal were formed in 2000 with a strong early influence from mid-late period King Crimson, and have since developed a unique sound, often using complex time signatures. In 2008, they are finalizing the recording of their second full CD. A single track from this CD "Aftermath" was pre-released in 2007.
