Rating- 0
Dear Mr. laptop studio owner / Intodown. According to your press release your music is Psychedelic Rock, and it makes a lot of pretty great claims. Lots of bands are calling their music that nowadays. It has become a cool tag line. You are NOT that. Your record is like Dream Theater mixed with early 90's rock, and overall is a pretty big mistake. I listened to it, the whole record and tried to find some good in it because your bio promised me Hendrix and a bunch of other heroes. I don't like giving bad reviews to unsigned bands. I hate giving bad reviews at all. I was not going to review this CD at all until I saw the title. "Brave New World", the novel, is a ground breaking and philosophic work of art that verges on life imitating art style predictions by Aldous Huxley. It is high art that has stood the test of time. It is preposterous that you should name the record that given its contents or scope. Also, taking lyrics from the 13th floor elevators, and then admitting it on the back cover is silly. You should be old enough to know better.
