The Knowing Hand is a progressive rock band from Mountain Home, Arkansas. The Knowing Hand takes a hard, technical approach to the modern rock sound. Metal influences such as Tool are easily recognizable in the rhythm and bass, while difficult stand-alone riffs and classical melodies with a resemblance to Rush, Queen, and Pink Floyd are appartent in the guitar. Vocals have been compared to Eddie Vedder's, with deep resonating mid-tones, but coupled with a range of high notes and a unique texture thrown into the mix. The sound portrays an excellent grasp on music theory and progressive rock's notorious eccentric time signatures. Recently, the band has been continuing to write for their first album which can be downloaded from http://www.theknowinghand.com
