Einstein, Einstein- Simon Speichert

(Whirled)

Einstein is a talented band. Somehow, they've been able to fit songs from different genres, and totally different sounding songs, onto one CD. The styles covered on this CD range from heavy metal/hard rock to classical to lofty, poetic ballads.

A bunch of studio musicians made this album, and that's why I think it works. Einstein could never be a garage band. It takes a considerable amount of studio knowledge to combine a wide variety of songs in such close proximity to one another (the songs, that is). Einstein is three people. Those three people are guitarist/singer Stan Janowski, drummer Jonathan Mover, and keyboardist/bassist/rhythm guitarist Jani Mangini.

Einstein's self-titled debut album features 11 spell-binding tracks including "Between The Cracks" (which has a very strange time signature), "Mirror Mirror", "Pain" and the classical number "Dance of the Poltergoost". It's an album that should appeal to a lot of people. Sadly it appears not many people will hear it, as it's on a small indie label, Whirled. But if you can find it, pick it up.
