In a time when the lenght of the songs created is determined by the dictatorship of the musical market and by the possibility for them to be played in radios, to surpass the barrier of 3 minutes seems to be something absurd.

Contrary to the radio music format, Fossil tries to develop its music, investing in a lineal but varied musical structure, where they use effects in overlapped sound layers, resulting in a quality and inventive contemporary instrumental music.

The musicians' concern is focused on the atmospheres - sound landscapes - created through experimentations with effects, abusing of ambiences and tempo improvisations, but always having as the basic structure the traditional format used in Rock: guitar, bass and drums.

" Far away from the limited understanding of the instrumental music, such as ''something to sleep" or "movie soundtrack", the purpose of this quartet uses an amalgam of effects, embodied by guitar pedals, that transmit feelings of anguish and reflection, as if from a simple arrangement it was possible to reproduce a scream .” *

Amongst the main presentations of the band are included the participations in the 2nd Feira da Música (Music Fair) in Fortaleza, at the school of music Viva Música Viva, the show at the Jazz & Blues stage of the 4th Edition of the festival Ceará Music, the show in the 2nd edition of the Festival Vida & Arte, also in Fortaleza, and the participation in the project Arte ao Pôr-do-Sol (Art at the Sunset), taken place at the Beira Mar of Fortaleza.
