The New Sound of Numbers
Label: Cloud RecordingsGenre: Experimental, Pop
Odd, rhythmic, friendly pop that strays just slightly off course from its Athens, GA/Elephant 6 roots. Here's the quick geneology: The New Sound of Numbers was founded by Hannah Jones, percussionist for Circulatory System, which is the band W. Cullen Hart formed after Olivia Tremor Control broke up. And Olivia Tremor Control, well, that's where the Elephant 6 reference comes in. (Scott W. told me once I tend to assume everyone's following along, so for you slowpokes here's a handy Elephant 6 history lesson.) The debut album, called Liberty Seeds, is due out in October 2006 on Hart's own Cloud Recordings.
