　　Formed by former Mahumodo frontman Medi Safa, *shels (sometimes spelt Shels) will release their debut album 'Sea Of The Dying Dhow' through Undergroove on June 18, recorded both in Medi's current Los Angeles place of residence as well as London, UK.
　　An hour of progressive emotional soundscapes and raw brutality, 'Sea of the Dying Dhow' also features members of Eden Maine, Mahumodo and Fireapple Red.
　　Combining beauty and primal intensity in music is a mean feat many can't ever fathom. For *shels, creating truly loving art that genuinely moves the listener is second nature.
　　For over an hour 'Sea Of The Dying Dhow' illustrates the passion and uniqueness that music should possess.
　　'The Sea of The Dying Dhow' opens with over nine minutes of ultimate escapism with the truly inspiring 'The Conference of the Birds'. Tender acoustics, strings, and brass wrapped up in wondrous glistening soundscapes and gentle yet thunderous drums truly encapsulate throughout.
　　'The White Umbrella' drives a harder edge, while 'Water' sees *Shels promote their ability to write a perfect infectious emotional pop ditty. The title track is a brooding hard-hitting monster, while the album closes with 'In Dead Palm Fields'. A romantic nine-plus minute that erupts with fervour, crushing your senses to complete overdrive.
　　*shels was formed in 2004 following the split of Medi's former band Mahumodo. While some of his former bandmates went on to form Devil Sold His Soul, Medi (born in America of Lebanese and Iranian parents) relocated to Los Angeles. There he wrote the music that has become *shels. Taking inspiration from past experiences Safa was unafraid to push his musical boundaries further in his artistic vision. Bringing in a credible set of musicians - former members of Eden Maine (Undergroove) and Fireapple Red (Visible Noise) - Medi is realising his musical dream.
　　After the self-release of *shels debut EP, "WingsForTheirSmiles' (2004), *shels debut album proper 'The Sea Of The Dying Dhow' captures easily one of the most forward thinking progressive rock bands ever to come out of the UK's underground.
　　'Sea of the Dying Dhow' is released on Undergroove on June 18 2007.
