American Symphony of Soul – Swept Up

by

Swept UpSound of Boston recently checked out the band’s debut, which they worked on with Matt Tahaney. They have this to say:

The album, which was recorded at two Somerville studios—Q Division and Phoenix Down Recording—is a 35-minute work of shining horns, shuffling drums, and rippling electric piano, organ, bass, and guitar. In “Galapagos,” guitarist Alex Mijailovic breaks into a solo you might mistake for a Carlos Santana melody. “You Got Me Bad” is so tight it could well have been produced by Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars (the album was produced by Joe Bagale of the Mickey Hart Band).

Read the rest of the review, and here a preview of the album at the Sound of Boston website.

Eternals – Out Of Context

by

Eternals first swung by Q during a Rubber Tracks session, and then returned for a weekend in Studio B along with Rubber Tracks engineer Aaron Bastinelli. The quiet, clean atmosphere of Out of Context sounds like it’s just the right one for this lovely tune.

Caspian – Dust and Disquiet

by

We were pleased to host North Shore band Caspian while they tracked another full length at Q. They brought Matt Bayles (he’s worked with all sorts of well known/heavy bands, such as Isis/Mastodon) with them, and it sounds amazing. The record is richly textures and layered, and the band made use of pretty much every instrument we have at Q.
