My name is Rob Amjarv. I'm 20 years old and the recording artist behind Pentamental.

Pentamental, the name, means “a musical mindset of 5.” All of the music is written in the time signature of 5/4. (Excluding one in 7/4.) The genre is closest to Modern Rock and Alternative. However, I’ve been influenced by a very wide range of music: Beethoven, Holtz, Duke Ellington, Louie Armstrong, Dave Brubek, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Alice in Chains, Nirvana…

In 2003, the band for live performances was formed and we’ve played at venues such as: The Whisky, The El Rey - along with others. Recently, Pentamental gained airplay on X 103.9 FM - the Inland Empires Rock radio station. We also have a wide national buzz with close to 15,000 fans to date. Visit myspace.com/pentamental to watch that growing number and to view fan testimony.

The 3 songs uploaded are the newest from the upcoming album due later in Sept.

Biography

My name is Rob Amjarv. I was born June 16th 1985 in Los Angeles and was raised by the ocean. I live in the mountains now.

I was 4 for my first recording; 6 for my first performance; 7 when I first picked up a guitar; and between the ages of 10 and 12, I was doing open-mic gigs on the Hollywood strip. I played several instruments throughout middle school and then graduated High School at 14. I went to college for a few years studying multimedia; but I hated school, and left in pursuit of music.

Pentamental was started in 2003. The name means “a musical mindset of 5.” All the music written for the project is in the time signature of 5/4. Hence - Pentamental. The genre of the music I suppose is closest to Modern Rock and Alternative. Sonically, I have been influenced by a fairly wide range of music. Beethoven, Holtz, Duke Ellington, Louie Armstrong, Dave Brubek, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Alice in Chains, Nirvana...

The band was together later that year and we did shows in such venues like: The Whisky A-Go-Go, The El Rey - along with others. Recently, some material was given airplay on ‘X’ 103.9 - a local Modern Rock station of San Bernardino and immediate surrounding areas. Pentamental also has a wide national buzz with close to 15 thousand fans to date. Visit myspace.com/pentamental to see that growing number and read the positive fan testimony.
