MP3 Brian Heilman - My Other Car Is A Brontosaurus
13 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Acoustic, POP: Power Pop
Details:
The buzz kept building and building. "My Other Car Is A Brontosaurus" was promised to the public by April 12, 2006. That date came and passed, and still the album remained mysteriously unavailable. Bzzzzzzzzzzzz. Bzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Then, a year later, Brian Heilman returned to his friends'' and suppoters'' musical radar screen, performing solo shows around Minnesota in support of The Giantists, and promising a release date of April 12, 2007. And on that date, exactly one year late, with pent-up buzz at fever pitch, "My Other Car Is A Brontosaurus" entered the world.
Brian Heilman is a jack of many trades and a master of two (skipping stones and crossing streets); songwriting and performing fall decisively into the former category. Yet Brian has been writing songs for the guitar for the past six years, and MOCIAB represents the best of Brian''s accomplishments over that time span.
Written in India, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Japan, and elsewhere, the songs on MOCIAB are often thoughtful, usually catchy, and always funny. "The world has more friends than tragic ends," Brian sings in "Scenic Highway," a song he wrote on a train journey from Delhi to Kolkata. This sentiment pervades an album that is more dedicated to discovering humor, happiness, optimism and inspiration in the world than it is to examining emo-esque despair or depression.
Jokes, metaphors, stalkers and stalkees, confidence in dreams that may seem crazy to others: these are the stuffs of MOCIAB. Check it out.
