Album Notes

'Captain Holmes and the Whale of Time' is not merely an EP; it is an unorthodox crumb of artwork in the field of Alternative Rock. These three tracks, recorded at Tree Sound Studios with producer John Holmes, have already succeeded in highlighting Crumbling Arches' strong and progressive presence in the Atlanta music scene and have attracted the attention of fans and industry executives alike.

This EP provides thought-provocative themes that greatly surpass the predictable subject matter of mainstream rock. Adorning 'Captain Holmes and the Whale of Time' are songs that address subjects including the harsher aspects of national identity, the parallels between a pinecone and an ascetic prophet, and the questionable essence of Time. This EP's fresh sound, meshing soft, beautiful melodies with invigorating and haunting eruptions of energy, greatly contributes to the unique sound that is Crumbling Arches.

This CD has a great sound that my sons' Cub Scout Pack reviewed and enjoyed. The children really enjoyed the energy in the songs and were dancing whole-heartedly to the CD. I love to listen to the CD in the car and when I am cleaning house. I can't wait for the full length CD's to come!

This CD is very enjoyable. It is a unique blend of raw rock, acoustic and a variety of other styles fused into an great alternative cd. To make it better this is the bands first ep and they are still in high school. This is great, but be ready for what comes next!
