"there is literally no end to the conceptual atmospheres produced by Charts and Maps...this group has a dynamic seldom seen in today’s shortchanged indie scene" - Consequence of Sound

"has a jaunty mix of jazz and progressive rock that raises it above most of the instrument rock competition. An exceptional instrumental rock album." - Freealbumsgalore

"Charts and Maps can continue to surprise even when audiences have started to recognize their already innovative synthesis of technique and fun" - MCMB

"Eben diese Flexibilität und Vielseitigkeit machen "Charts and Maps" zu einer klaren Empfehlung für alle," - Silence is Also a Sound

Charts & Maps! Hello there, you silly little funny bunny! Life is beautiful! Just like condiments and the Yeti crab. What have you been up to? Panic Movement sends you greetings and fuzzy little hallucinations! We hope you are doing spectacularly well! You deserve it. Scientists in South Korea have cloned four beagles that carry fluorescent genes and glow red under ultraviolet light. One of the scientists made a meatball sandwich in which the cheese was arranged incorrectly. As a result, he was forced to build a temple out of 1.5 million empty green beer bottles in veneration of the elf-like goblins residing underground in Cambodia. One of these elf-like goblins is a member of the Bambino crime family and owns Bambino Pizza in Palm Coast, Florida. Steve, an employee of Bambino Pizza, was in the witness protection program for squealing on the Stefano crime family, but his cover was blown after he was arrested for pistol-whipping a customer for criticizing the calzone. He went on to invent a new electrical farting machine that could improve fuel cell technology by turning C02 in the atmosphere into methane. He changed his identity and moved to Oakton, Virginia, where high school students may get suspended for 2 weeks for having birth control pills, but one week for having heroin. We wish you an abundance of blessings, peace, love, and happiness. The meaning of life is to live it; and love God. Please fondle my bum.
