ABOUT THIS ALBUM


Album Notes
FUNCTIONAL SOUND: Influence of Life Stress on Depression/Moderation by Dark Water Transit

Zahmeugua, Guzaro, The indescribable; Journal of Generalized
Disaster and Overwhelming Catastrophe.4, 1256(2003)

In a retrospective longitudinal study of a representative birth cohort, we tested why stressful experiences led to depression in some people but not in others. A functional sound by Dark Water Transit was found to trigger promoter regions of the serotonin transporter(5-HTT)which thereby moderated the influence of those stressful life events that totally crush your soul. Individuals who did not listen to the full length CD or did not attend one of the band's shows exhibited more depressive symptoms, diagnosable depression, and suicidality than those who did. Upon further testing, those subjects who did employ this functional sound performed better on a full battery of neuropsychological assessments focusing on concentration, attention, working and verbal memory, as well as Executive Frontal Lobe Functioning(p>.05). This experimental study model thus provides evidence of a DWT-bifarcated evironmental interaction, in which an individual response to environmental insults is moderated by how much one is willing to totally rock this shit.

mindblowing
it blew my mind the first time i listened to it, it blew my mind the hundredth time i heard it, it blew my mind the thousandth time i heard it...kudos to DWT for a true sonic/aesthetic masterpiece

this album is crunked out!
The first song rouses you out of your chair and by the time you get to Arizona you are ready to make change! The album moves funky and switches up for the ADD set, but each song really gets into it. The time signatures are designed to impress those with glasses but they also mix it up with rockin' riffs that are bananas. Buy it now. This is the American rock n roll of always.

More angular riffs than you can shake a stick at!
DWT's debut is a masterstroke of math-rock majesty. You may think you've heard music like this before, but I'm certain that you've never heard it like this. The Wonders of the New Testament captures the essence of what this band is all about in their live show. I'd buy it if I were you. My copies keep getting jacked by people who just gots to have it. Preach it DWT! Preach it!

a must have for anyone's cd collection
This cd takes me through so many different emotions every time I give it a spin. The translation of song to acutal emotion is amazing. It is what music, in it's purest form, is supposed to do. And to do that without the use of lyric, is beautiful. It is funny, it is like the music alone tells you what the song is about. This is not only, music for musicians, but for everyone. We all will be able to relate and love what is caputred on this disc. Buy 5 copies and distribute them amongst your closest friends. Within 2 days, your luck will change for the better.

beyond the valley of the math rock
this stuff rocks. experimental stuff that's mathy but still raging fun. This is a full on cd with a lot of tracks that are killer, minimal filler. oh snap did i just do that? Anyway, i saw them live and they are awesome. Not to be missed.

Wild Stallions
Okay, you know the movie Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, you know the band that they form that changes the world, helps mold the world into a perfect utopia where everyone and everything is most excellent? That's what I thought of when I first saw Dark Water Transit.

This CD is well produced and goes above and beyond standard math rock, combining elements of IDM/drum & bass with the power and epic-ness of 70's rock (MC5, Led Zep, King Crimson). The music of Dark Water is not something easily contained by two stereo speakers. Buy the CD and then go see them live. 'Nuff Said.

Agonist, Antagonist, who's the prime mover?
I believe Dark Water Transit to be a unique, creative, talented and amorphic musical entity. They are Baltimore’s most precious jems. Undeniably the instruments sing and circulating within the vibrations are sweet sweet lyrics of hope. Musically mixing the intensity and intelligence of classic Rush with the trance groove - loop time precision of James Brown. The recording was painstakingly worked and re-worked; standing like a monument to its creator’s strength, passion and perfection. Like Mama used to say “It’s in there.”
