Title: Pilotdrift Water Sphere

Rarely do you find an album where every song is different from the next. Pilotdrift’s eclectic mix of sounds on their album, Watersphere, pushes the boundaries of music. This band is not afraid to use their instruments, vocals, and unconventional noises to create original music.

Although the music is different from most of what’s out there, Water Sphere owes some debt to 60’s psychedelic rock. The trippy style can be heard on the aptly named “Bubblecraft,” or on the creepy “Caught In My Trap,” which reminds me of Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. Other tracks like “Jekyll and Hyde Suite” are influenced by classical music. However, Pilotdrift is a progressive band, and this is shown on tracks like, “Passenger Seat.”

Water Sphere, is not an album for everyone. The music is so unlike anything you might have heard, that it may take some getting used to. But, be assured, this may be the music of the future.
