CD/DVD Releases: ScienceNV's Last Album Before The End Of Time

Posted on Sunday, May 19 @ 15:05:00 UTC by nightowl

California based band ScienceNV announced in April the release date for their third album, Last Album Before The End Of Time. Falling astronomically between April 28th's Saturn Opposition and May 4th's Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower, the group's third album was released on April 30th. Looking for reference points in the world of science makes sense since every member of the band works in science in one way or another.

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, ScienceNV was formed in 2005 by Larry Davis (guitar and bass guitar), David Graves (keyboards), Jim Henriques (guitar and keyboards) and Rich Kallet (drums). ScienceNV released their debut album, Really Loud Noises in 2008. They followed that up with Pacific Circumstances in 2010. While progressive rock is often considered to be lacking in humor, ScienceNV have a funny side to them. In fact, saying the name out loud reveals both the true meaning of the acronym and their sense of humor.

Two digital singles have been released as preludes to the new disc. "Curved Space" (March 7th) was described by Larry Toering of Music Street Journal as "…an oustanding assortment of grooves that take you on a smooth ride the whole way." He also said, "This is simply a masterpiece of music with very cool synth textures to round out its cosmic infusion of styles."

Scott Prinzing (also at Music Street Journal) said of "Titan" (March 26th): "The four members of the band are releasing their third full-length album, Last Album Before The End Of Time, and if this single is representative of the overall sound and quality of musicianship, I will be searching out more of their material. The instrumentation of guitar, bass, drums and keyboards seems straight-forward, but manages to achieve symphonic levels without synthesizing strings and horns. There aren’t too many solely instrumental bands that can hold my attention for long, but this three-and-a-half minute work really packs a punch... I have listened to it three or four times and now it's stuck in my head. I'm most reminded of UK, but ELP also comes to mind... I could see this being an alternative theme for Darth Vader, the Death Star, or some other galactic master villain...I can’t wait to hear the full album."
