about

After three well-regarded albums with prog rockers Elephants of Scotland, Adam Rabin is stepping out to release his first solo album this fall. Over a year in production, this new collection features songs both intended for a new EoS album as well as some specifically written as solo works.

Save for one guitar solo by EoS bandmate Bob Gagnon, Rabin plays all of the instruments himself. The album, free of the rock band conventions, explores different arrangements and styles - Middle Eastern, acoustic, orchestral, and even a jazz standard-like ballad.

Rabin and long-time collaborator Greg Skillman keep the lyrics relatable - not so esoteric or mysterious. The lyrics center around the trials and sacrifices required in claiming, or re-claiming, one’s own identity. With the opening track, “Mistakes,” the singer comes to terms with his own failings and accepts that ultimately there is no such thing as a real mistake. In several of the other songs like the title track and “Trains That Never Come,” the fight for one’s self often involves leaving something behind and moving on.

If you purchase the album here you will get the full album plus a bonus track of music written for the Improvised Weapons podcast, a digital lyric booklet, and download of the album. The CD purchases will be autographed and numbered. There will only be 100 copies of the CD printed.

Execute and Breathe

This US-American band, which owes its contradictory name to a photomontage created by George Logan, is usually compared to "Rush"... well, no, I don't agree... While there are undoubtedly some typical "Rush" chords and sounds, I think the music has much more in common with 80's neo-prog bands like IQ. And just like the latter, those imaginary Scottish elephants don't lose much time with silly riffs and interludes, but get straight to the point in their songs, with much attention to detail. Sven B.

Here you have a group of musicians whom play and write for the best of the music.Very strong well written arrangements that hold your attention from the beginning to the end.All the members in Elephants of Scotland are obviously well rehearsed The vocals are strong and the melodies are very memorable.Definately worth the asking price and a complement to anyone's musical catalog.
