Search - Caspian :: You Are the Conductor

Truly well made music

"An excellant debue from a band that promises to deliver great songs for a long time. The walls of sound that hit the listener are very powerful and indeed, 'transcendent'. This is especially apparent on teh song "Loft". However, "Loft" would not have the intensity it does without the previous songs "Further Up" and "Further In" getting things moving. I do not think I have heard a better three song combination anywhere. The rest of the tracks are quite good as well, but those three are certainly the highlight."

Instrumental rock soundscapes for thought

"Can a sonic barrage be a good thing? Yes, if the providers are the four guys who comprise Caspian. The mixture of guitars, bass, and drums is, at worst, interesting and intriguing, and at best, almost transcendent. Think of the best soundtrack music you have ever heard - the kind that is best suited to the film in question and of superior quality (and truly original, to boot). You Are the Conductor is like that, except the film is your thought, your drive time, your drifting off to sleep. "Loft" is perhaps the best cut on the disc."
