In 2002, noise626 release the critically acclaimed debut album, The Art of Falling Forward. And somewhere, a knock was heard on the door.
In 2004. noise626 came back with another offering of musical oddness called A Thin Cold Line. And again, somewhere, the door was pushed ajar.
Now, in 2006, noise626 has released a new album entitled An Infinite Shade of Gray And the door has been torn off its hinges....
The new album is a masterwork of ambient electronic progressive rock that is sure to entice you into a world of hope, despair, love, hate, redemption and madness. Ant Graham, the creative force behind noise626, has spent the last two years constructing these compositions, and we can honestly say that this is the best work he has done to date.
Noise626 was formed from the ashes of the Noise Inc which initially was a collection of computer music compositions that were in desperate need of fleshing out. And in between his stints as guitarist and sometime vocalist of the brilliant avant band Christus and the Cosmonaughts (http://www.blrrecords.com), and as producer of such diverse projects as Libertas, Solitary Sinners and Kennedy Center poet Laureate Stacy Dyson, he continues to strive to perfect his very unique blend of electronic and progressive rock music. An Infinite Shade of Gray is the culmination of many sleepless nights, many long, hard days and lots of soul searching. The music is as varied as life can be; from the gentle acoustic stirrings of Tsisdu.. to the percussion driven wonderment of Ripping to the epic 16 minute title track that brings to mind Pink Floyd, David Bowie, and Peter Gabriel, but definitely has a freshness and feel all it's own.
Also featured on this album are some of the most talented vocalists you have ever heard. Sara Curtis, Meggidah Goldston, Karen Sucharski, and Clarsa McElhaney (courtesy of Martin Records) were all an invaluable addition to this project, and you should listen to them as they will blow....your.....mind!
NOISE626: An Infinite Shade of Gray
Unique in scope and beautiful beyond words, the 3rd noise626 album redefines ambient electronic progressive music. Turn in on, turn up your headphones, and drift away...
NOISE626: A Thin Cold Line
On his second album, noise626 continues to create an intoxicatingly moody blend of progressive and gothic rock with a nod to electronica. It is truly Music from the Other Side...
NOISE626: The Art of Falling Forward
An epic, dark, harmonic and beautiful mixture of gothic and progressive rock.

is not a lonely hearts club but a growing community of musicians
and music lovers. It's purpose is to promote and showcase through
profiles and features.
I really can't get over how excellent the things you're putting out are. There isn't a better local musician I've heard.
Okay, so we're both at the end of a musical hiatus. Are you going to start gigging or what? I have a bassist and a drum machine ready to go by next month. Man, if I were to open for you - or have any arrangement like that really - I think it'd be incredible.
Hey! Thanks for the nice comments... I really love the sound of your stuff too! A friend mentioned your stuff to me yesterday... it sounds really beautiful...
