艺人介绍
OSI is an American progressive rock band, originally formed by Fates Warning guitarist Jim Matheos in 2002. Chroma Key keyboardist and vocalist Kevin Moore is the only other full-time member of the band. The collaboration may be considered a studio project, as its members and contributors write and track most of their material independently, sharing and developing tracks long-distance, only coming together at the end of the process for mixing and additional tracking. The band's name is a reference to the Office of Strategic Influence, a short-lived American government agency formed in 2001 to support the War on Terror through propaganda. The band has featured a number of guest musicians on its albums, including Steven Wilson, Mikael Åkerfeldt, Sean Malone, Joey Vera and Gavin Harrison.
Matheos recruited Moore and Dream Theater's then-drummer Mike Portnoy to perform on what was originally planned to be a Matheos solo album. Matheos and Portnoy originally planned to produce a progressive metal album similar in style to Matheos' work in Fates Warning. Moore changed the music's direction, incorporating electronica into the original progressive metal sound. The band's debut album was released by InsideOut Music in 2003.
OSI was originally intended to be a one-off project, but Matheos and Moore found they both had gaps in their schedules so produced a follow-up. Free was released in 2006, with Portnoy returning to play drums as a session musician rather than a full band member, due to personal and musical differences between him and Moore. Blood was released in 2009, with Porcupine Tree drummer Gavin Harrison replacing Portnoy. Matheos and Moore are currently working on the fourth OSI album, set to be released by Metal Blade Records, with Harrison once again on drums.

- @小米米：OSI这个乐队名字全称是Office of Strategic Influence（战略影响局），是美国国防部在战争期间为情报工作所设立的一个单位。以 Dream Theater 鼓手 Mike Portnoy、Fates Warning 吉他手 Jim Matheos、Chroma Key 键盘手 Kevin Moore(曾担任DT首任键盘手)三个人为主轴，加上Sean Malone(Gordian Knot贝斯手)、和Steve Wilson(Porcupine Tree主唱)，这五位当今金属乐坛的顶尖人物，组成了这个超级团体。他们的音乐带有浓厚的科技感和焦虑感，以及一定的政治倾向。
