Lots of guitars and melodies. Simple stuff really and might be enjoyable for those that like Frusciante's slower stuff. If you enjoy the music, please like the project at Facebook.

As I really liked your previous stuff that I also found from that forum, I'll deffinitely give it a listen... Expectations are high ;)
(Just started listening and I feel that I might enjoy it very much...)

Downloaded _BATCH2 and listened to it because I found your band name interesting and because I love post-rock, and I have to say it was much better than what I expected to find as a free download on a forum.

I've only listened to it once, but I already really like your record. On the Shoulders of Giants is a really good track. Barlow's Law is really nice and uplifting too! Well done.

The album sounded very nice and mellow.

I also liked the titles a lot. A title referring to something Isaac Newton himself has once written was an automatic “can’t hate this track because of the title” for me. The track (On the shoulders of giants) wasn’t quite how I musically perceive Newton, but while I was listening to it I saw him smiling <– though they otherwise have claimed –> to a succeeded alchemical experiment. I was even more amazed when later on a track called “Alchemical Recipes” started playing. I must be either future sighted or just too fascinated by Newton… Luckily for me he is dead, so I will be saved from being sued for my overinterested actions – like stalking his manuscripts. :D By the way they are available online (including the alchemical ones) if anyone is interested.

The sounds and the guitar pattern in some parts of Barlow’s big mistake :D (a.k.a Barlow’s law) reminded a lot of “La Sirena” by that Banyan group of pot heads with a one named Frusciante... But to make a perfect potion some Frusciante-influences are needed, since they are for music the same as mercury is to alchemy.

Althogether the album had a very happy atmosphere and the ending track wasn't an exception. The recipe worked and a blaze of white light fills the air. :)

@talvitaja: I hope the second one wasn't a letdown! :)

@Fenix: Glad to have positively surprised you!

You're the first to get into the theme of this album. Fun!

Forgive me if the following becomes pretentious but I cannot remain cynical forever.

On The Shoulders Of Giants isn't precisely focused on Newton himself. I was thinking more about all those scientists and philosophers throughout history who's findings are now considered obsolete, if not flat-out "wrong". They are tragically forgotten giants in a sense, and Barlow is my favorite example.

The entire idea of dedicating so much time and effort, almost your entire life, to developing an idea that turns out to be time wasted is utterly tragic and so dreadfully human. You'll never escape mediocrity.

I enjoy relating with that humanity. I'm no George Ohm and at my best I might be Peter Barlow.

All tracks refer to this idea in some way or another. I consider it a tribute to failure, the most human quality of them all.
