The Canyon Observer is five piece band, one of the few if not the only one, operating with musical expression inside the sludge, doom, ambiental and noise genre. Since 2011 they released one EP and played more than forty concerts around Slovenia and across Europe. Their distinction from other post-rock Slovene bands is in their long, repetitive and slowly evolving songs, distorted guitars and unrecognisable vocals, escorted with strong live performances.
