Sons of Alpha Centauri (sometimes abbreviated to SOAC) is an English instrumental rock band based in Swale, Kent. Founded in 2001 by Nick Hannon and Marlon King,[1] the band has developed and borrowed from a range of styles from the 1970s through to the 1990s including stoner rock, desert rock, post-metal and the New wave of British heavy metal, as well as British artists as Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd.[2]
Sons of Alpha Centauri are mostly noted for their ongoing collaborations and aversion to public performances, having performed under 20 gigs since their formation in 2001,[3] of which six have been at the Camden Underworld in London.[4] Their eponymously titled debut studio album Sons of Alpha Centauri was released in 2007, with common themes for the band including outer space, World War III and environmental preservation.[5]
