Released on July 22 Sky Eats Airplane's first full length album since evolving from a duo to a full band, is sure to influence the sounds of the new wave. Blending electronic sounds and drum loops with an intricate showcase of musicianship brought by all members is a step up from their prior independent release of "Everything Perfect on the Wrong Day". For those who don't know Sky Eats Airplane (SEA) was originally a two man band (well three if you count the Mac Notebook) from Fort Worth,Texas. Consisting of Brack Cantrell on vocals and Lee Duck on guitar the duo took the local music scene by storm. Bringing in a packed house where ever the band went they started a steady fan base along with a huge Myspace following. After about 2 years of playing shows the band split because of Braxton's need to pursue softer music,he went on to join PlayRadioPlay! and then form his on project Balance Problems. With positions in the band needing to be filled Lee turned to his friends in another local band,(in theory), to bring the sound of SEA back to life. John Erickson on bass,Kenny Schick on drums,and Zack Ordway on lead guitar finished the instrumental line up. The band now needed a singer and turned to the power of Myspace to find their frontman . After a few months of tryouts they found the man for the job, Jerry Roush, was flown down from New York to join the band. SEA then released a three song demo and began to constantly tour,which caught the eye of Equal Vision Records. Which now leads us to were we are. This is a must own album that shows a perfect blend of sounds. Everything from jazz to metal has been incorporated into this masterpiece to create something relevant yet unlike nothing you've heard before. From the intro to the album to the very last song there is not a dull moment where you forget that you are actually listening to a song. Its like taking an epic journey through space to explain it in few words. Jerry brings catchy melodies along with a powerful "scream" and some very cool harmonies. All the instrumental parts show a high grade of technicality and originality from the members. Whether its Zack nailing some sick "sw33pz" or Kenny laying down a rampage on the drums, this album just doesn't seize to impress me. The electronic portion, which is perfectly in twined with the music, always leaves something new for your little ears to hear. Everything is very crisp and clear, nothing negative to say just that the vocals were a bit over bearing in some parts and the leads needed to be a lot more emphasized. Like I said before this album with change the way new bands write music, I know this for a fact. Can't wait to see what SEA comes up with next.
