You found the elusive DEMO TAPES of the band RadioFreeBabylon.
"Everyone sit down - keep cool - let's just relax
- let's just get into the groove - come on - we can get it together."
-
M. Jagger, Altamont, 1969
Guitar-driven, blues-based, NeoFolkFunk is about the best way to describe
the sound of the band, Radio
Free Babylon.
The debut project, Geometry is
a collection of 13 songs that have been too long in the making. Currently in
production,
we expect Geometry to
turn some heads somewhere maybe probably. The music has all been test-marketed
and is found to be quite marketable, even if the market is a little testy.
"While We're Waiting" is a simple exercise in alliteration and acoustic guitar, during which RFB s's singer struggles to find his inner John Hiatt - or someone equally gravel voiced.
"Time's New Romans (Landscaper's Lament)",
is also the title track from RFB's
fourth release. (Which is kinda sad,
since our first three haven't been recorded or released yet.) Done entirely
at home on the bedroom computer. Make sure to visit the companion website, Time's
New Romans.
"Where's My Jetpack?" has been shuffled and will now be included
on the debut Geometry.
This is NeoFolkFunk, and we found a drummer who has mastered the funk. Very
early
Aerosmith meets Lyle Lovett and introduces
him to Frank Zappa. (see the companion website, Where's
My Jetpack?) We were originally holding this one out for our 5th album,
but got convinced to let it out now.
"Dock of the Bay" is not scheduled for any releases, but it might go on RFB's debut project Geometry.
Better vocals yet to come.
RFB's next four albums are also in pre-production. RFB intends to go completely
independent with their very own Comatose
Llama Records, where we will control
all aspects of production, cover and liner art, release, distribution,
merchandising and booking. (And likely not have any sales as a result.)
find out all the details at RadioFreeBabylon.
Attention Lawyers and Sales Weasels: Our band's label, Comatose
Llama Records, is available for absorption into a larger conglomerate
for the right price, and provided we still control everything.
