We formed Crinoline with the intent of producing
evocative, dynamic energy in spite of the ordered,
linear constructions of the now. We try to be
innovative yet classic; ordered yet spontaneous.
Our philosophy tends toward minimalism, but moves
away from the usual patterned schema of the trite.
Originally, we were involved in quasi-formalistic proto-classical illusionism, but
our music gradually evolved into a highly personal, luministically neo-environmental vision. We've also mastered 4 chords!
The band has now achieved a heightened,
hieratic effect while maintaining a primitive,
volumetric simultaneity. The tonality of our songs
has reminded people of the archetypal and geometric work of
the early harmonic mesoliths. In fact, we've been told that we
resemble a cross between the Starland Vocal Band, X-Ray Specs, and moose mating!
Lyrically, we try to use mannered, graphic nuances
which are painterly in their effect and optical in
their symbolism. The semiotics embodied in our "ars
poetica" reveals gestural tendencies and perceptual
iconography. The words sometimes rhyme, too!
