Having almost given up on the changing power of music, and inspired by an insomniac crawl through the Tate Modern, Saturation Point were formed in 2005.
A face-to-face encounter with the work of abstract expressionist, Rothko, led to their creation and development, improvising slabs of sound, forever evolving, and best understood as a whole and from a safe distance. Saturation Point were forced to ask how Punk Rock it was to play three and a half minute pop songs and swear a lot? While some opt for the "how cool do I look on stage?" school of post rock this band understand that its only how you sound that counts and that when it comes to any form of expressionism less will always be less and more is always more. Saturation Point drag you back to the eye of the apocalypse. They are punishingly loud effortlessly dwarfing their peers heavy climaxes while surrendering none of their melodic inclinations or sense of space. And that is their undoubted beauty.
