It would be hard to exactly compare other bands to Ebony Ark, but I'd like to say that this is a more progressive version of Dakrua, mainly because of the similar vocals and crunchy / clean guitar approach that bands possess.
Although the band appears to have a "Goth" look in their pics, their music is probably more in the progressive vein than it is Goth, although I'm not sure the band would agree with this.

What it is, is that he and his brother (Stephen Hanley, who once played bass for popular British emo band The Fall for a couple of decades) are also playing with Tom Ingley, who used to be the singer in The Inspiral Carpets.
He also (as you may know) played bass and hung about with a band called the Fall, so to my young eyes there was never a barrier between liking music and playing it, it just seemed like a natural progression.
The reason I left was because the band had a massive row after a gig in Brighton where MES blamed the bands recent woes (we'd had all our gear nicked the night before) on the fact that the rest of the band was having too much say.

Electrons in germanium are confined to well-defined energy bands that are separated by "forbidden regions" of zero charge-carrier density.
