Chicago-based To Destroy A City was formed after Andrew Welch (drums/synths/programming), Jeff Anderson (guitar/keyboards), and Michael Marshall (guitar) met through various iterations of previous musical projects. When the three finally sat down together in the summer of 2010, they moved quickly, writing and recording their debut within a year's time. The self-titled album was released by n5MD in September 2011. The remix companion album, Rebuild, was released in 2012 and featured reworked tracks by local scene-mates as well as other artists from the n5MD roster. To Destroy A City’s sophomore full-length album entitled SUNLESS is due in the fall of 2014. On SUNLESS, TDAC expands on where they left off, drawing from cinematic, literary, and musical influences to craft a sprawling yet cohesive follow-up. Sonically, TDAC moves effortlessly between delicate ambient passages to beat-induced grooves to soaring melodic peaks. Electronic beat production is intertwined with live percussion, while layers of guitars, synths and pianos forge the melodic foundation of the tracks. The uninitiated may find To Destroy A City analogous to label mates Lights Out Asia and port-royal, and, due to some periodic drifting into similar spaces, the wide-screen ambient guitar duo Hammock. 

BIO(ENG)
El tubo elástico are an instrumental rock band from Jerez de la Frontera (Cádiz, Spain).
Their influences are diverse, taking in progressive, symphonic, space, math and post rock as well as elements of funk, psychedelia, electronic and psy-ambient.

The band started in the late 90’s with a combined passion for classic rock bands from the 70s, such as Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Yes, Genesis, Camel, King Crimson and Emerson, Lake & Palmer. As well as a passion for their local andalusian rock bands, particularly Imán Califato Independiente. 
Gradually, their music incorporated new elements from other musical styles and the evolution of progressive rock itself, inspired by bands like Ozric Tentacles, Liquid Tension Experiment or Porcupine Tree, among others.

The fusion of these diverse styles is achieved through an open creative process of intense improvisations. The arrangements of their compositions are always kept alive and are continuously evolving.

This organic process has allowed el tubo elástico to develop a powerful progressive rock style, whilst still keeping their characteristic sound and melodic basis reminiscent of early influences.
In those years, el tubo elástico carried out the recording of some demos and performed at several concerts and festivals, such as the Barbarian Rock Festival 1998 culminating with their set at the Festival of Advanced Music 2006 (MUA), a tribute to the legendary andalusian rock band, Imán Califato Independiente.

Shortly after this the band members decided to close this first period and took a break from performing.

It was in the summer of 2012 when, driven by the growing and inspiring current instrumental rock scene, el tubo elástico decided to get back to writing.
In this second period, Alfonso Romero, a close friend who was always besides the band, replaced one of the original members, Alejandro Zenón, to become their new bassist.

Their current line up is: 
	•	Carlos Cabrera (drums and percussion),
	•	Alfonso Romero (bass),  
	•	Daniel González (guitar), 
	•	Vizen Rivas (guitar).

With this new line-up, the band have returned to their improvisational composition approach. Incorporating synthesizers and programming has further diversified their fusion of progressive rock with elements from electronic music, providing a very contemporary sound, but preserving the roots of classic rock as basis.

After composing a new set of songs, Alfonso took on the recording process at MusicaWorkshop studios, and so began the publication of el tubo elastico´s first eponymous LP which was digitally released in February 2015.  The album captures all the energy of the band, as well as the evolution of the work developed from their beginnings up to nowadays.

Currently, the band are working on Vinyl + CD editions of their first album.
