Ben Levin Group plays Overture from their new album "Pulse of a Nation"

Video by Rab Berry

Erotic, majestic and twisted, Ben Levin Group is redefining conventional music—one stirring concert at a time.

"I want my music to reach out of your speakers, punch you in the face, and make you see colors you never could have imagined," Levin says. "Or, at the very least, I want my music to be honest."

Founded on the notion that there is still some unique noise to be made, Ben Levin Group has been packing small venues of dedicated audiences since 2007. Guitarist/bandleader Ben Levin is constantly composing new sets of music for the group, and the band rarely ever plays the same music at two shows in a row. Fans never know what to expect at a Ben Levin Group show, but they arrive knowing something amazing is going to happen.

Currently Ben Levin Group is recording new material and releasing the Pulse of a Nation graphic novel on December 7th, 2011

Influences include: Steve Vai, Nine Inch Nails, Bjork, Sufjan Stevens, The Dear Hunter, Shostakovich, Stravinsky, and Massive Attack.

I was moved; come to my house? for free?

@00Dakka I think we'd destroy your house with the decibels but we would love to play for you someday.

the influebnce of Vai is obvious, but you have your own sound, I liked it a Lot!!!!!!

[nimajqeb]

@chechoguitar112 Yeah Steve Vai is one of my biggest influences, but I listen to lots of other weird stuff too. I am glad you are digging the music!

[brannimir]

Woooow, this riff is so great, i can't get enough of it!!!

[nimajqeb]

@brannimir It's very chunky. We all like it chunky.

[StevieVaibanez]

Sounds like Liquid Tension Experiment at the start.

[Cmontermini]

more like "pulse of a nation's throbbing boner for this forthcumming album."

I like your Lady Gaga story. I was asked to audition as well. I was there the second day, first guitarist. It was weird, they did not tell me what to play, so I just played one of my own riffs. It was awesome, but my casting agent told me not to shred, so I as confused on what to play. In any event, I hope I get another chance to audition, I love guitar.

[drkats]

Good job. This is great stuff!
