Album Notes

Cosmonaut
"There is a real grove..." - Music Revue

Two assholes from Lansing (Jamesen's Brian George and Josh Stacey) met another from Grand Rapids (Veronica Speedwell's Rodney Johnson), and schemed about a rock-band; but they didn't have a singer. The aforementioned contacted an asshole from Kalamazoo (Thought Industry's Brent Oberlin). The Michigan quartet named the group Cosmonaut after minutes of heated debate.

Much history occurred prior to this "forming", but has mercifully been omitted for the sake of good meter and reader attention.

What can I say? Rock-bios are boring.

2004 brings "Pipebomb Full of Nails", Cosmonaut's debut release on Ann Arbor's Swollen Lip Records. With song titles like "National Geographic Lovesong" and "The Orient is Red", this pissed-off Indie-rock platter is mmm-good.

Stop reading and listen to the album.

REVIEWS

What can I say that hasn't already been said. Brent's angry vocals and lyrics, aggressive music. It's not Thought Industry, but close enough. It's a shame Cosmonaut broke up. For those of you who are complaining about the "telephone" sound of Brent's voice, deal with it. I think it fits the music perfectly.

Fucking Rules!

This CD is some of the best music I've ever heard period. I give it ten stars, fucking fantastic. I forgot how much I love Brent O. and all his musical endeavors but this made me go back and purchase all the TI stuff on cd. Yeah its short but its sweet as a cosmopolitan and equally as intoxicating. Track 1 and 3 are my favorites today, but they are bound to be dethroned by 2 and 5. Anyone who doesn't appreciate this cd will never be a friend of mine. Pure anger and distrust, I love it! Jeb

Good sounds to these Thought Industry deprived ears!

This is not Thought Industry, but if you like that band you will enjoy this disc. Great riffing, classic Oberlin vocals. Overall it's rocking, edgy in spots, with a bit of diversity.

Good one from Oberlin and co.

Quality stuff from ex Thought Industry mainman and friends, basically quality Outer Space/Black Umbrella era TI rock. Hope both these guys and TI reform one day, both are bands more folks need to discover. Also, Music Revue needs to run Spellcheck.
