Album Notes

The Dan Sheehan Conspiracy is Dan's first solo album, with Dan playing all guitars, basses, vocals, whistles, and keyboards along with guest drummers Spencer Cobrin (ex-Morrissey, Elva Snow) and New York session man extraordinaire Roi Star. Although many of the songs have a familiar Banter-type vibe (some were actually performed by, although never recorded by, Banter), Sheehan's liberation from the democracy of his former band allows him to stretch out into other directions, as evident on the harmony-laden "Tired Eyes," the ballad "Before You Wake" and the jazzy instrumental "Another Morning." These songs, placed alongside the hard rocking "Melting Snowman," "See Kay," and the didgeridoo-tinged "The Valley" create a wonderfully eclectic album reminiscient of Led Zeppelin III or the Beatle's White Album. There's even touches of prog rock on tunes like "Comatose" and "Epic Fantasy Adventure Song."

Several of the songs on The DSC have topped the charts as internet hits on mp3.com, soundclick.com and playgroundz.net prior to the album's November '07 release

The Dan Sheehan Conspiracy is full of raw energy and passion intermingled with interesting lyrics and wild tempo changes. Unique and original.

Sheehan's anthemic debut features elements of prog and classic rock with a poetic voice. Zeppelin meets Jim Morrison for the rock set.

in a word, original
author: eileen amon
                            
this is thinking music that avoids inaccessible abstraction, and feeling music that sidesteps sentimentaliy.  the subject matter is wide-ranging and consistently couched in fresh language.  the music ranges between delicate and muscular, but is never treacly.  this is art that is  that rare thing, original.

good honest rock
author: David Elroy
                            
You can hear a little Rush in "The Valley," a little 80s metal in "See Kay," a little Zep in "Comatose" (among elsewhere), and some 70s Stones in "Another Morning."  Yet everything sounds fresh.  Dan's lyrics are sometimes straight and philosophical (The Valley, Patterns of the Rain), sometimes droll and deadpan (I'll Come Along, Go Outside).  I won't pretend I love every song (could do without tracks 10-12, for example), but most of these songs are great.  The production is also excellent, so I recommend the CD rather than compressed MP3s, so you can hear all the sound details.
