ConFused5 is a perfect example of the twenty year cycle in Pop music. First formed in 1981, the band, then known as Frust, reunited in 2003 as Confused5 to record their debut album "Out Of Confusion" with the future strategies of the music industry.
With the money of listeners, fans and investors they raised a recording budget on the crowdsourcing internetplattform Sellaband.com .
Compared with more than 8000 artists they reached their budget like 20 other artists around the world within a few months.
The CD ‘Out of ConFusion’ was released on a worldwide basis in june 2008.
The resulting CD production, with Pete Strobl at the helm, is reminiscent of the great rock productions of the late 70s and early 80s. No surprise as Pete Strobl took part in productions like Tom Jone's "Sex Bomb", Keb' Mo's Grammy nominated "Suitcase" and Mark Knopfler's "Shangri La" during his years as studio manager at the world famous Shangri La Studio.
Strobl teamed up with Ron Hitchcock for the mix sessions. Hitchcock, a well respected producer and engineer in his own right, has had a hand in recordings by Toto, Rita Coolidge and Kris Kristofferson and reached Platinum status with seven Neil Diamond albums.
"Out Of Confusion", the brand new CD from ConFused5, stands tall among classic rock albums. The melodic hooks and big sound conjure memories of stadium rock acts like Genesis, Foreigner and REO Speedwagon. A pleasant surprise for fans looking for great music in the traditional rock style.
