Details:
This 5 track EP is a great example of today’s true independent band producing quality records on their own, causing the big studios and label machines that fund them to head the way of the dinosaur. ‘It wasn’t all a bed of roses’ says Stephanie Sheri ‘When you are wearing so many hats, and making all the decisions, the process can easily overwhelm you, but now looking back over the last 4 months, I feel a deep sense of pride to know we saw it through and gave ourselves the freedom to be true to the songs , with no artistic compromises. This far outweights the discomforts because we can truly say this is what we are about 100%.”
Pan Out Now play what they call “recombinant rock” - an intriguing mix of dissonant harmonies, big guitars and cascading piano atop anthemic, driving riffs.
Picture Lacuna Coil meets Queens Of The Stone Age meets A Perfect Circle.
“4/4 time and standard tuning are increasingly stagnant forms in popular music.” says singer/guitarist Tim Foley “the complexities of 21st century life are more accurately realized for us through asymmetry and dissonance - which we apply to melody, harmony, and rhythm. I think you’ve got to keep pushing at those boundaries in order to stay relevant.”
This refusal to conform is immediately apparent as the voices of Stephanie Sheri and Foley weave together clear, soaring lines in an energetic disquiet, revealing the craft and honest emotion of the lyrics.
Having just released their 4th independent album including catchy tracks like “So Not The Way’ and ‘Aspirate’, it’s clear this band is poised for bigger and better things. If their live shows are any indication, this album is sure to provide the rallying cry for disaffected dreamers everywhere
