Synopsis

Product Description
Originally released in 1996, Broken Water is the title of the debut record from New York City droning hard rockers Out've The Box. Vocalist/Guitarist Kevin Delaney (the heart and soul of OTB) recorded and produced Broken Water at Studio 1212 NYC in Jamaica, Queens while playing all of the instruments himself on the Manic Records release. Other musicians were brought in only on tour. Kick starting with the hiss and hum of the leadoff single "Easter's End," before heading into the more melodic but no less bludgeoning "Opium" Delaney showcases his musical chops like Shaggy snags a Scooby Snack. The talented troubadour doesn't let up on any of the album's other nine tracks either as he slams full force into every song from the heavy "Pain Under Tongue", to the dark and dreamy gothic instrumental "Abra-Melin." Delaney says "Broken Water" is a diary of the time the artist spent while living in a condemned music building in Jamaica, Queens NY during the early to mid nineties. "Living in the music building meant living within some of the more punishing and less forgiving sides of life's cultural underbelly," says Delaney. Celebrating his triumph over personal hardship and despair, "Broken Water" is ultimately an exultant album, an album about survival at a time when just basic survival itself had become a heroic achievement.
