A tight-knit gang of four, the restless souls that make up Cistern play rock music like the best bands formed at the periphery: raw, scrappy, intuitive – a group of friends forging awe and anguish into song. Cistern is a band defined by tight musicianship, harmonious and dissonant instrumentation, do-it-yourself recording and experimentation.
Their most recent release, New Standard, is a 5‑track display of DIY-rock anthem recorded on an 8‑track tape machine.
