5.0 out of 5 stars Hear Ye, March 1, 2004

Hear Ye

This unique disc entirely different from ones Bran Flakes so successfully produced and two of whose members join Library Science's debut album High Life Honey is a breakthrough into an exciting milieu. Here, at first, a mysterious, and catchy repetitive beat carries you along expectantly. A sudden "hey" interspersed occasionally in the midst of this steady beat and outer gurgling sound to the right, then left, end a trip to somewhere. 13 tracks vary what is a listening experience. Titles of each track may or not influence the imagination such as "Fun" with its bouncy rhythm and outside softer faster acompinament. The outstanding virtue of Library Science is the amazing use of off stage sounds coming around you in circles, way off in the distance and to right or left all unexpected, creating a certain theme in the core melody patterns. Words can barely describe this disc. You just have to hear it for sheer personal enjoyment.

5.0 out of 5 stars All of the sounds you love are recorded here., April 26, 2004

I just picked this album up recently and I think it's totally great [full disclosure:
one half of Library Science is my brother]. What I like about this album is that
it is totally dissimilar to all the other albums I own. Well, that's not totally true,
since it clearly stole a lot of its material from R.E.M.'s "Eponymous" disc, and the
"rat-a-ta-ta-taaaa" sound is totally ubiquitous these days. The one thing I
can't totally figure out is whether this is music to get stoned to or if it is stoned
to get music to. As for their name, it's totally obvious that these guys are into
science in a sincere way, but I really doubt they've even been in a library in the
last decade -- libraries just aren't LIKE THIS ANYMORE!
