		Echobrain play the same kind of mind-bending jams and ultra-heavy riffs grafted onto shimmering pop, with Donkin's beguiling vocals hovering somewhere between Soundgarden's Chris Cornell and Grand Funk's Mark Farner.
		Echobrain is a work in progress, but one you can't help but hope will hone their style.
		Echobrain is the "brain child" of former Metallica bassiest Jason Newsted and two fresh faces in the music world, Brain Sagrafena and Dylan Donkin.

		The CD is amazing, but to truly experience Echobrain, you have to catch them live, to feel the vibe and see the extraordinary, effortless talent that flows through every fiber of their beings.”
		Echobrain is a four-piece band from Northern California whose trippy melodies have attracted the likes of rock legend Neil Young, who brought them in as a supporting act on five shows of his most recent tour.
		Echobrain’s new album “Glean” is set for release in March of 2004.

	[fmSound] Concert Review - Echobrain
		Echobrain charged into New York City, riding the hype of their critically acclaimed debut album.
		The true measure of a great rock band is their ability to play live, this being said Echobrain succeeded in their New York City debut.
		Newsted made a comment during the show that explained his strained relationship with Metallica “I’ve been playing with these guys (Echobrain) for seven years now, and I’m pleased and honored that you all finally get to hear our stuff.” It was obvious that Newsted was referring to Metallica’s policy of no side projects.

	music-reviewer.com - June, 2002 - Echobrain in Concert
		This was also one of the first stops on the ECHOBRAIN "Keep Me ((Alive)) Tour," and from past experience with bands like "Type O Negative" and "Queensryche" (and now ECHOBRAIN), the big sound system in a small venue can actually become quite annoying.
		This was extremely obvious when the band took the stage and there wasn't much of a response from the audience until Newsted entered the stage a couple minutes after the rest of the band.
		ECHOBRAIN is worth seeing and hopefully, by the time they get to your city, the "just getting their act together" part will be over.

	CD Review - Echobrain - longislandmusicscene.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Echobrain is the new band featuring former Metallica man Jason Newsted.
		Overall, Echobrain really do combine a bit of everything and don't sound like anybody else long enough to make lots of comparisons (check out the moody "Keep Me Alive" with it's violin versus acoustic guitar structures for proof which can also be heard on other tracks).
		Thus Echobrain has a striking amount of originality and accessibility and style which goes a long way in my book.

		Sagrafena, the son of a drummer who spent a stint in the '70s San Francisco funk/soul band Sassafras, was never a Metallica fan, so his jam sessions with heavy metal royalty never really affected him, but his friend and musical collaborator Dylan Donkin was admittedly sweaty palmed upon meeting Newsted.
		Tensions within the group escalated, and on January 17, 2001, Newsted announced that he was leaving the band due to "private and personal reasons." Despite veiled references to "the physical damage" incurred over the years with the notorious band, many suspected his departure was due in part to Hetfield's "with us or against us" policy.
		EchoBrain's live debut came in August of 2001 at a showcase of Bay Area bands, joined on-stage by guitarist Chris Scianni and keyboardist David Borla (of the New York duo Dangerman).

		And a lot of the songs that are acoustic-dominated, we tried to stay true to his original idea, leave that out front and put all the bass and psychedelic stuff around it.
		We had a song called Echobrain - now called "The Feeling Is Over" - but we took the name for the band instead, and changed the name of the song (laughs).
		The song was initially called "Eyes Glued to the Back of Your Hand." From what I understand (laughs), Dylan's brother had a pretty bad acid trip, and had to hide between the mattress and the springboards of his bed for ten hours with his hand over his eyes.

	Ink 19 :: Echobrain
		There is a fine line between exploring your musical boundaries and just making plain boring music, and Metallica haven't been too steady on their feet lately in that regard.
		Bassist Jason Newsted jumped ship in time to concentrate full-time on Echobrain, a group of people he's been playing with for laughs for a few years already, retaining his credibility in the process.
		Albums made by major bands' former bassists don't necessarily imply essential listening, as Bill Wyman demonstrates on a regular basis, and while Echobrain leave a bit to be desired, it's a nice surprise to discover that this album is, in fact, a remarkably well-rounded one.

	Album Cuts: EchoBrain - Music
		Metallica fans who rush to their local record stores to purchase EchoBrain because it happens to be the former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted's latest work are in for a little surprise.
		EchoBrain traces its beginnings to a Super Bowl party in 1995, where Newsted was first introduced to drummer Brian Sagrafena.
		Sagrafena brought singer-songwriter-guitarist Dylan Donkin to one of these sessions in 1996 and EchoBrain was born.

		But then Echobrain is an unusual band, one nurtured by ex-Metallica bassist Jason Newsted and also one that has opened recent major concerts for Neil Young and Crazy Horse, and even appeared in Young's Greendale film.
		The follow-up, Glean (Surfdog Records), produced by Echobrain and set to be released in spring 2004, is equally surprising.
		Echobrain defies categorization and challenges listeners with their hypnotic and melodic form of rock.

		Bassist Jason Newstead left the monster band to join Echobrain, and according to the alleged reports, he ain't returning until leader James Hetfield personally asks him to rejoin.
		As the band played their first song, it was no surprise that the bass lines weren't just grounding the sounds, they were leading them.
		The trippy garage rock 'n' roll of the opening act – Portland, Oregon's the Helio Sequence – was a much stronger musical entity.

		Echobrain's Glean is the sun that bursts through the clouds after a hard, driving rain.
		If grunge was the music of the junkie's nadir, then Echobrain is the whorling eddy of his chemically induced apex.
		On one side of his hand exists a wild, mishmash of colored shapes flowing into the hole created by his thumb and forefinger.

		They record an album, name themselves EchoBrain, and release their independent debut on Chophouse/Surfdog Records.
		When vocalist/guitarist Dylan Donkin says the title of his band 'EchoBrain' comes from the "voices in my head", you know you're in for an interesting listen.
		Consider that their self-titled debut is the result of freewheeling jam sessions between Donkin, funk/jazz drummer Brian Sagrafena and Jason Newsted, and it gets real interesting.

	Jason Newsted debuts new band, EchoBrain - Bowl of Flakes
		With most of Newsted's former other band — guitarist Kirk Hammett (who shows up on EchoBrain) and drummer Lars Ulrich — in the audience, along with producer Bob Rock, EchoBrain took the stage as a trio for "Say the Word," a quick tune with a thumping, swing bassline and a punk-rock breakdown.
		EchoBrain can go all the way from real mellow piano to full-on blasto punk and everything in between.
		In EchoBrain, the songs are all different, so you actually have to play it and finesse it and stuff like that.

	EchoBrain : Echobrain - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Even discounting the thwarted expectations, Echobrain fails to fit into any particular modern niche: The band is too polished for the indie rock scene and too smart for the retro scene.
		The three members can all play, and the eponymous debut grows on the listener with repeated plays, with new nuances of each track creeping out of the speakers every time it is spun.
		Echobrain is a surprisingly strong pop/rock statement, whether it finds that audience or not.

	Echobrain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Echobrain was formed in 2000 by Newsted, Sagrafena and Donkin who had close contact with one another throughout the late-90s after they met at a Super Bowl party at Jason's in 1995.
		Supposedly, a great factor that caused the break-up of Echobrain was an encounter with copyright issues.
		Another band by the name of Echo Drain had written a song titled, "Suckerpunch" that was also used by Echobrain.

		If you’ve kept up with the latest news on the Metallica front, it would appear that the three remaining members are chatting quietly with recently departed bassist Jason Newsted.
		Having said that, I hope that if they indeed ask him back into the fold that he gives it some very, very careful deliberation, as Echobrain’s recent eponymous debut easily slays what the band he was once in is awkwardly attempting now with their silk shirts, short coiffures, goatees, mascara, and wallet-chains.
		Plastica are but a shell of their former selves, but Newsted has found two able jamming partners who form a consistent, shimmering power pop shell for his rhythmic, pulsing strings.

		He enjoyed the hell out of all the music, but he still seemed most at home when the band was hard crunching.
		Indeed, Echobrain sound like a young, hungry band, with fresh-sounding tunes whose often crisp arrangements just happen to be informed by a guy who knows how to get it across in a football stadium.
		During their own set, Echobrain busted out the Moss Brothers' "Promise to Promise," a playful, crunch-a-munching tune that began with the braaap braaap of a distorted Newsted bass run.

	ECHOBRAIN: Echobrain
		Though their meeting was in fact simple, nothing comes quite that direct where the music's concerned.
		Echobrain features former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted whose desire to fulfill his own creative passions were likely stunted enough in his former band that he was ready to accept new challenges-granted, this is as far off from a "Metallica" record as you can get and comparatively, there are none.
		Put them together and they're an emotive mix of Rock and Pop styles, firmly based in seventies' fluff, flutter, and fusion, building upon the framework first constructed by names like Gilmour, and McCartney, later adapted and extended by the likes of Kravitz, Rush, and Radiohead.

	Fort Worth Weekly Online -- fwweekly.com \| Music \| EchoBrain
		Rounded out by vocalist/guitarist Dylan Donkin and drummer Brian Sagrafena, EchoBrain serve up a lush, orchestrated version of alt-rock, creating a kind of grunge-goes-to-the-symphony sound.
		The album, which was recorded before EchoBrain had ever played a live show, benefits from some moody strings provided by principal members of the San Francisco and National symphonies.
		With their first tour under way, EchoBrain now will see if they can do on stage what they have managed to do so brilliantly on this debut: Create a sound that is comfortably familiar but gloriously new.

		This is a warning for all the Heavy Metal fans who thought Jason Newsted’s new band Echobrain would carry the sound of his former mates Metallica; you should stop yourself from running to the record stores immediately.
		With Echobrain, Newsted has avoided the shameful and lazy path previously taken by so many rockers who fled successful bands, merely re-producing the same sound under a different name (I am thinking Perry Farrell and Tommy Lee here).
		Despite its few faults Echobrain is a deeply layered, innovative, and interesting album that delivers a rich musical experience, and promises more good to come from this trio.

		Not long after, Jason pops up with this offering and to add insult to injury, fellow Metallica member Kirk Hammet guests on one of the tracks.
		EchoBrain are not quite what one would expect.
		Made up of Jason and two younger friends in the shape of vocalist Dylan Donkin (who sounds not a million miles away from a young Paul D'ianno) and funk jazz drummer Brian Sagrafena, this is about as far from metallic roots as you'll get though staying in the confines of what you would call rock.
