Leave it to Ohio based experimentalist Todd Tobias to record an album where visitors from outer space provide the vocals. Well, not really, but First Man On The Rock as a concept works quite well. Post-rock, ambient, metal and avant-garde were thrown into the melting pot to create mesmerizing instrumentals. Tobias is a studio wizard who can turn the glimmer of an idea into a full-fledged composition that packs a punch.
Fans of Sci-Fi B-movies as well as died-in-the-wool music geeks will something they will love on this album. If anything, it will broaden their horizons as Tobias reaches for the stars.
First Man On The Rock is released via Tiny Room Records (CD, digital) and his own website.
