MusicOMH.com said "strikingly different to anything else around... This is one particular bandwagon that everyone should jump onto."
Judge for yourself.
True comparisons:
A hornet buzzing around your feet. Progressive polar opposites of Death Metal and Robbie Williams. Histrionic events based on parallel universes and the sound of a pop princess drowning in the coke-driven shows that she performs. And sugar and cinnamon!
Chris Blundell AKA Archive Of Everything likes to take things to the extreme.
Creating rollercoaster rides of albums that spin from clattering chaos to beautiful slow ballads and everything in between. Archive Of Everything doesn't just blur indie music boundaries, it takes the boundaries and shreds them with a sawtooth wave.
Infinite Loss: 2008
"Infinite Loss" was started on the 8th of November 09, it was written, recorded and released by the 8th December 09. An album even more chaotic and clattering than the first chopped up with heavy beats and ear-ripping synthesisers
The debut album, a concept album about a schizophrenic man regaining his sanity. The album caught the attention of the press and garnered great reviews for its originality and songwriting. Also features the single Radio 1 banned for being too controvertial "Hello Children"
Catchy, dancable chopped up rock that you'll just wanna groove to...
More details coming soon...
