Album Notes

Captain Audio was the former band from Josh and Brandon of the SECRET MACHINES and Regina from CHAO

'Luxury or whether it is better to be loved than feared' is Captain Audio's follow up to their highly successful debut release, 'my ear's are ringing but my heart's ok' (Last Beat 1999).

"Captain Audio renders pop music as a scientific experiment... mixing together sounds and adding more." Dallas Observer

Captain Audio is made up of guitarist, co-vocalist Regina Chellew, bassist, co-vocalist Brandon Curtis and drummer Josh Garza. Regina previously played in the touring version of European act ruby (Creation/Sony). Brandon was formerly in the punk outfit UFOFU (Medicine and Time Bomb) and Josh formerly played in Comet (Dedicated)
.
"Trip hoppy pop to Velvet Underground dreaminess with shimmering backgrounds" Puncture

'Luxury...',Captain Audio's first full length, is an epic pop statement that combines the sounds of Phil Spector, and Bowie's glam days, with swirling melodies and grinding grooves. Their live shows are "one-of-a-kind" experiences.

REVIEWS

As good as it gets

Ecletic, experimental, exquisite... well, certainly the first two, and it approaches the pedastal of the third. Captain Audio try to shine and shine for trying with this album. There's even a bit of everything for everyone. It's definitely an album full of those special couple of tracks you'll crave to hear, and slap onto a mixtape for the road, office, or anywhere. It's not a disappointing buy.
