about
There is more than one band with this name: If you're looking for the Norwegian rock band, please refer to Roseland B for information and full tracks. Roseland is the union between virtuoso singer and songsmith Azam Ali (Niyaz, Vas) and accomplished film composer/producer Tyler Bates (300, Dawn of the Dead, Rob Zombie's Halloween). Juxtaposing ambient electronic textures with intoxicating vocal melodies and driving hypnotic rhythms, Roseland’s music is the expression of a truly unique artistic collaboration. While their music has been compared to Cocteau Twins and "Siouxsie and the Banshees meet Led Zeppelin," no likeness conveys the cinematic essence of Azam’s haunting voice and evocative lyrics that reflect the sorrows of war, self-doubt, and the personal experiences and relationships which shape and mold our psyches. Azam Ali and Tyler Bates met in 2000 when Azam performed on his score for the film Night at the Golden Eagle. There was an immediate synergy between the two which sparked an inspiration to begin writing and recording music together. The culmination of this visceral call they both felt is Roseland.
