Columboid
We Were One

LSE 019 CD / LP / Digital

 

 

 

In these times of digital revolution, darkness and depression, We Were One, the debut album by Columboid, is our saviour. Shattering orthodox approaches, their brand of brooding anthems are a cross between the heightened awareness of Nick Cave and the darkly sexy, throbbing keyboards and twisted party-times of TV On The Radio. There's an air of the lost, and unfortunately forgotten, Add N To X as well - an unholy alliance between music and technology. Columboid are forging their own path, creating a soundtrack to the apocalypse. The lyrics echo this - a stream of consciousness that reflect Ryan Hamilton's (Keys,Vocals) abstract approach to writing - open to interpretation at both the birth and death of life itself. If 2011 does welcome the end of the world, I know what I'll be listening to as we go down - We Were One is the battle cry, a clarion call into the ether offering hope and good times. That's all we can ask for.

-Rich Hughes

*Past and current members of Vaz, Man Man, Lewis & Clarke, Coyote, Holy Fallout. Limited Edition 12" colored vinyl.




Selected Press:


"... a dark, moody record that carefully slinks through percussion-heavy, keyboard-driven pop and rock balladry .."

-OMG Vinyl

"..woozy, skewed schizo pop"
-The Dedibel Tolls

"That minimalist post-punk that echoed from the walls of Magazine and Television, ring forth through the songs of Columboid. It’s amazing just how easy they make it sound."
-ZapTown Magazine
