Down right simple, and straight up rock. My interpretation was latent as I wasn't sure what to write until I listened to the entire album. After that I understood what they are doing and it's not bad. It's funny and somehow theatrical due to the main vocalist who often chants rather than sings.
These guys hold true to their "regressive rock" style, and so give it a listen if you like more cowbell!

Man, you need to get yourself over to game producers and audition this music.
I think it's quite intense which is good, and the composition is a thumbs up. Give this a listen!

This band is very interesting. Let a alone being a punk/ jazz band should normally turn out crazy. I have to admit, I thought the mixture looked interesting enough for me to give a look, but I had low expectations. To my surprise I found it to rebel that judgment.

I really like the jams they get into, almost like a dance is occurring within the soundscape. I would have thought them to be more bold with the instrumentation as punk normally goes; but actually it's very light and agile.. and warm. That mixed in with devilishly playful proggy guit lines concocts a nice style.
The only miniscule issue I have is that the drums could be tightened up just a little bit.
Will dowload it.
Peace, love and music!

This music is different somehow... I feel there is s double edged sword here, and for me it's because there's elephant in the room; from what I've heard so far is the production level of the instrument is a problem. This takes away significantly from concept and feel. One of the most prominent of issues I have with the sound are the drums. It sounds like they need to be unleashed more somehow.

On the other hand, I think there's a good energy here, and they seem to be unveiling a rather more meaningful message than most metal bands. Kind of reminds me of korn at times, marylyn manson, metallica, some white zombie and some elements of punk perhaps...
I like what these guys are doing, and apart from the issues I had I quite enjoyed listening to them.

Peace

Here we have an interesting blend of prog rock which ranges from some acidy jazz sound to heavier and airier Primus type sounds. An interesting mix. I would say on a critical note that the production needs a little work, I think it could sound a little more organic and warm to get the final niche. I love prog rock so this is great. Keep workin!
Peace, love and music!

Even though o don't understand what you are singing, I do dig it. It's well produced, and all the instruments seem to have their own space and place in the songs. I'm a prog enthusiast in listening and playing so this is up the alley of mine. I would however like to see more experimentation with bands like these and their sound in order to get the "stick out" factor that prog needs in order to get a good foothold in the market today. All in all a good sound and good album here on Jamendo. Keep up the good work.

Peace, love and music!

The production is damn good here, this proper studio stuff. Honestly, I can't take the music seriously cause it's really not my thing as a progressive rock lover. Nonetheless, I think its very well done, professional sounding, and you will def get attention for it. My word of advice; take the double bass down a tad (only a tad :-)). ROCK FACE!!

Peace, love and music!

Nice, another indie band that doesn't adhere to the cliche. This band delivers their sound excellently through soft, easygoing rhythms, fostered by a good bass player and lyricist. The production is good since it filters in the warm sound the band exerts together; makes you feel like your hangin around in a desert at dusk smoking a cigarette. Good stuff if you wanna chill out!

Peace, love and music!

Very good job people! The song after the intro (Papillons) was very enticing! I think its nice to see Indie bands that don't sound like the next one stacked on fast food chains' shelves. I can hear some muse and radiohead influences, Beatles, Indian percussion as well as pure jazz. The drumming is very good indeed, an inspiration (is it sequenced most of the time is there some real acoustics involved?)
Keep it up fellas, you got something special here! May the universe pull you in the right direction!

Peace, love and music.

Good chill out music here thats well produced creating a great sound scape that invites the listener to get more of a feel for the music. It can be slightly nintendoish at times due to the various background sound clips of caves, frogs croaking and birds chirping etc...
Sounds a little like the bands Air, the Wise Guys, and perhaps a little like Dj Shadow at times... which is a good thing!
Overall a good album, great for background listening at work, or just at home!
Nice beatboxing!

Personal data

Of The I is an emerging band from London, trying to spread their musical message by providing demos of their music, freely, over the internet. The band’s first album is provisionally titled ‘12 Sequences of a Storm’. Their aim is to create a new kind of sound that invokes elements derived from spirituality, philosophy, psychology, each member’s personal experiences, as well as the music that has inspired them. Of The I’s sound can be described as progressive, melodic, experimental rock. Of The I are currently completing their first album, as well as rehearsing for upcoming shows in London. The first completed demos for the album, recorded in an apartment in London, were compiled into an EP at the request of members of demonoid.com, and uploaded as a torrent . Due to an overwhelming positive response, and a desire to show that sharing art is good for both artists and the audience, the band is releasing this EP all over the internet, calling it the Demonoid EP to show their love for the site that inspired and assisted them in sharing their own music via p2p networks. If you and/or your website would like to host the EP and make it available to your friends/users please contact the band via myspace. The Demonoid EP is also available at mp3.com, for free- of course. These tracks will be re-recorded later, once the Of The I enters the studio, as part of their full-length album. Until then, enjoy the music!
