Windmills by the Ocean
Self-titled
CD / (2006) / Robotic Empire
Sold Out
WINDMILLS BY THE OCEAN is the title of a recently unearthed recording
from August 2003, the sole output of Boston natives Mike Davis, Dave Dunbar,
Brooke Gillespie, Bryant Clifford Meyer and Thos Niles. Since the project's
beginning and end, the creators have continued on in such bands as 27,
ANODYNE, ISIS, and RED SPAROWES, but the relevancy of this intense recording
can be most appreciated now, three years after it's conception. The variety
and depth to this (mostly) instrumental music documentation reaches far
beyond those of any mere side-project, and the heavy-music genres are in
dire need of something this refreshing.

More Info:
These rock-based songs incorporate so many elements of "drone" the group
could almost reside next to their celestial forefathers SUNN and EARTH,
except with more melody... and drums. However, the usage of keyboard and
electronic elements alongside several guitars make the album more
comparable to SIGUR ROS than BLACK SABBATH, but without compromising any
of the heavy metal elements the members have become most-known for. The
additional usage of improvisation and mild repetition allows the listener
to relax into a slow headbang across five songs that each surpass the
six-minute mark. But what makes this album most impressive is the
triumphant, anthemic feel to it, especially considering the group never
even made it to the live setting. An important period of musical
evolution is captured here, and Robotic Empire is proud to present it to
you.
