Making a Rubber Band Ball in the Brain of the Mind by Drive45
For fans of Guerilla Toss, Cardiacs, Magma, hyperpop, and extreme anxiety which manifests as a sense of manic whimsy, Making a Rubber Band Ball in the Brain of the Mind by Drive45 redirects our high-strung inner hell into a creative explosion. A diverse set of sound sources enable this remarkably individual, enigmatic artistic voice, with most acoustic origins completely untraceable thanks to extreme digital manipulation. Arranging these bizarre musical elements into rapidly shifting, aesthetically flamboyant song structures allows our minds to skip over the absurdity found within each moment and to instead turn our focus towards the complete mayhem unfolding on a larger scale. Freely associated lyrics ruminate on our most nagging anxieties, seemingly quelling their own concerns through their extreme transformation into such intense music. We may never overcome those cyclical, useless thoughts which haunt every waking moment of our lives, but by converting that energy into something extravagant, beautiful, and exciting, we enter into an escapism so raw, so beautiful as to feel utterly undeniable for anyone lucky enough to listen.
