[[Samwel Mallia]] (Guitar, vocals), [[Robert Farrugia]] (Keys, guitar), and [[Ben Mifsud Joslin]] (Bass, vocals) met up some time in 2013 with the desire to create ambient driven soundscapes. These jam sessions paved the way for the birth of Eyes to Argus. After some time tinkering and experimenting around these spacey textures, there arose the need for percussive elements, elements that [[Kristian Schembri]] (Drums, percussion) later offered upon joining in late 2015, adding new depth, groove and meaning to the sound and direction of the band.
Eyes to Argus writes music in terms of mood and atmosphere, creating an eclectic mix of dreamy textures, heavy riffs and dynamic grooves. The band’s sound is often described as experimental post-rock.


Throughout its evolution, the band’s aim has always been the same; to think in terms of mood and atmosphere, rather than set genre. With influences being worked into the mix rather than imitated, the result blends into moments that flow across a spectrum, ranging from mellow, dreamy instances to other heavier, brooding ones.
Born as a casual rooftop project born in 2013 between Samwel (guitars, vocals), Robert (keyboards, guitar) and Ben (bass, vocals), Kristian (drums) would complete the line-up in 2015, adding a percussive depth to the sound.

2018 was an important year for Eyes to Argus. Following a positive response to VEER, the band was invited to share the stage with prolific foreign acts, including Mokadelic, Staghorn and Yndi Halda. It was also the year that Samuel Attard (drums) became the latest addition to the line-up. After an amicable parting with Kristian, Samuel was the obvious choice to fill the role – he was the man who recorded and produced VEER.
