artist Aphasia Music

In 2001 while attending the Music Industry Arts Program at Fanshawe College (London, Ontario) Aphasia recorded their first EP, 'The Endless Reverie'. Within the year they began playing regularly at London's Call The Office and other venues across Southern Ontario, along side bands such as Robin Black, Cheerleader and Malhavoc. "[Aphasia's] coarsely textured guitars...resonated with the caustic, emotional lyrics of vocalist Brett Carruthers who completely oozed 'rock star'...with a barrel full of sexual innuendo and lewd gesturing. Certainly a band that is comfortable with themselves and their music, and definitely performance personalities!" - Casus B. on www.dark-entires.com (the Reverb Horror Show). After Completing College, Aphasia felt stymied by London's erratic music scene and moved to Toronto in the summer of 2003 to begin recording the much anticipated full-length album 'Hereafter'. Coinciding with the production of "Hereafter" Bassist Stephany Seki was recruited to finalize Aphasia's line up. The self-produced full-length album 'Hereafter' was released in early December of 2003 to a packed all ages CD release party at Toronto's Club 360 with other Toronto favorites: Les Six, Vegasphere and The Birthday Massacre. Currently Aphasia is developing new material, playing shows and shopping for a record deal.
