Sounds Like
Post/math rock with a splash of melodic honesty with maybe a hint of pretense. Add to taste.
"Just as much as this recording shines over its predecessor, it goes to show that art-rock doesn't have to screech of pretense as its reputation suggests as of late. The only real crime to the ears is hearing that the asking price for this splendid album is less than ten dollars. Well here's one eager customer more than willing to plunk it down. Sheeeesh, I would have paid over twenty."
"Austin, Texas’ Every Other Fate returns with their sophomore follow up to the critically favored Into The Singularity And The Maw Of Tomorrow. The new album, the more modestly titled Phantoms Fill The Skies, brandishes a remarkable torrent of mathematical tinkering juxtaposed against tonal crescendos and backdrops of classic psychedelic rock.
Despite being an unquestionable improvement over the debut effort, this sophomore canvas is still set to draw the interest of Dredg, Tool, and The Mars Volta fans. The irony in that statement is that the with profound math-rock nature of the record, the band has a lot more in common with likes of Self-Evident and the similar.
In the end, the band probably doesn’t care who you compare them to. They just want you like the music and come to their shows. Got no qualms with that here."
Every Other Fate: Into The Singularity and the Maw of Tomorrow
"Technically stunning, professionally produced, delightfully excessive, and endearingly earnest, the debut album from San Marcos's Every Other Fate is a relentless and disarming emo-math-rock mosaic. Rarely appearing to stay with one idea for longer than 30 seconds, and maintaining a furious energy for almost the whole duration of the album, "Into The Singularity And The Maw Of Tomorrow" is an exhausting listen. Of course that"s a good thing for your typical math-rocker (or prog-metalhead, in my case). The myriad tightly-packed ideas are not exactly luxuriously developed, but they are all really good ideas executed with refreshing confidence. Essentially a disorienting thrill ride, this album could be considered ear-candy if it weren't for the consistently thought-provoking lyrics. While at times sounding like he's reading from his diary (for all the good and bad that may entail), vocalist and presumed lyricist Brent Ferguson gets points for an expressive delivery and his intriguing concepts about insanity and technology. Gold stars go to head-spinning drum work by Brandon Daniel and nuanced-yet-adrenal production by Jason Moore. This tight local release that will give you your money's worth of thrills, and more than a little depth and honesty thrown in to wash it down."
"Do not be turned off by the ridiculously long and awkward album title: it is worth a listen! This concept album is progressive, chaotic, and well-orchestrated. The myriad of sounds mix together skillfully (for the most part) and I am greatly anticipating the band’s next album, which is supposed to be released soon..."
Strapped to the gurney and rolling down the hall, Every Other Fate is the band one would hum before the electroshock treatments. As a furious and prosaic math/post-rock band, Every Other Fate redefines the standards of modern progressive music following the direction of such bands as The Mars Volta, Muse and Coheed and Cambria. Whoopsy Magazine calls this Austin-based quartet "a relentless and disarming emo-math-rock mosaic."
With the completion of their first full-length album, Into the Singularity and the Maw of Tomorrow, Every Other Fate has found themselves caught in a maelstrom of high-profile performances, including headlining a show at SXSW, opening at Stubbs for Kevin Martin (Candlebox) and the Hi-Watts, playing The Heart of Texas Quadruple Bypass Music Festival, and consistently headlining in the Austin area. Their current concept album flows in movements as a narrative, telling the 1st-person story of a man struggling against technology and questing for meaning and enlightenment. Into the Singularity... is a wrenching, pulsating journey through emotion and insanity that leads the listener, through musically-induced psychosis, into the unknown and beyond.
Every Other Fate includes Brent Ferguson (vocals/bass), Josh Cunningham (guitar), Matt Hinterlong (guitar/backing vocals) and Brandon Daniel (drums). All of their projects, including their current album, are all-encompassing and include original artwork, graphics and web design. Included with the CD is a prosaic, passionate novella detailing the narrative described lyrically on the album.
"These have no longer any hope of death; And this blind life of theirs is so debased, They envious are of every other fate."
