From Brooklyn, New York

From last.fm:

Brooklyn, New York 2006 - 2012 Extra Life was a band led by New York-based guitarist/vocalist Charlie Looker (member of Ocrilim, ex-Zs and ex-Dirty Projectors). While the music retains some of the heady instrumental abstraction of his work in Zs, Extra Life moves into a far more melodic song-based realm. The compositions are still epic, complex and aggressive, yet with a lush, personal, dramatic spirit; dark, heavy avant chamber pop with a cold Gothic beauty echoing that of Medieval plainsong.
