Soundscape is a four piece Progressive-Rock group built on the philosophy that in the music industry music is what matters most, and everything else is secondary. Spiritual to thunderous and always precise, their music captures a wide range of expression through soaring melodies and dynamic instrumentation. This high standard of professionalism in composition, musicianship and performance was established in June 1996 with the completion of their first album "Discovery." Containing over 78 minutes of music, the record is a virtual showcase for the band's skill, expertise, and talent for song writing. 12 songs take you on a journey through the life of a young boy into manhood as he comes face to face with the questions and realities of sex, religion, society, politics, drugs and war.
Featuring the soaring vocals and intricate keyboards of Rob Thorne, the guitar wizardry of Todd Rose, the explorative bass of Scott Waite and the imaginative drumming of Lou Caldarola, the live show has been described as a "magical and intense journey," forging the path to a new musical experience that comes as a much welcomed breath of fresh air.
"Grave New World" the follow-up to "Discovery" was recordered in 1998 but never released due to a variety of factors. It has now been digitally remixed and remastered and will be released sometime in 2008. More information will be posted as it becomes available.
hey..happy Thanksgiving!..I know you guys have mentioned how when there's info and/or a release date, etc for GNW it would be posted. But I just thought I'd chime-in by saying however patient I can be, we are nearing the end of the Christian-Calendar.
So maybe that bit about it coming out around X-Mas is true?..it appears to be the last remaining record I've got a reserved seat for in my 2008 Albums of the Year party. Regardless, it'll probably be something I and many others will get to know well in 2009 anyway, which now isn't too far away.
2009: -New president -New apt (for me) -New Soundscape album (spending time hearing)
hey guys..just wondering, any news you may have to pass along about GNW's release?..release date perhaps..Summer isn't too far away!..I'm really looking forward to it.
I can't believe this is actually gonna happen. I hope a lot of the longtime fans, and fans from long ago, along with many new one's get word about GNW.
