Phenomenal album. Still in heavy rotation in my collection after a year.
author: Brian Fernandez
I've had this CD for over a year now and its still in heavy rotation in my stereo and ipod. Its phenomenal work that deserves to be played to a mass audience. Its better then 99% of the stuff out there. Brad's voice is charismatic, unique and hipnotic. You'll be humming the memorable melodies in your head while pondering the meanings behind his poeticly cryptic lyrics. Highly recommended!

Gravity Engine brings the intimacy and soft strokes of folk to the power and emotional invitation of rock, supported by the thick, lush foundation of electronics, although used sparingly. Comparing itself to the likes of Grant Lee Phillips and Jeff Buckley, the collective quality amounts to so much more than these references, dancing the line between the jangly and the sonic, the warm and the edgy, the lush and the angular. While most elements in these songs are well-blended and integrated, there is a slightly textured feeling, a slightly off-set mixing of ingredients making for highlighted shape, shadows and differentiation. Whether you hear all those subtleties or not, this is simply great sonic, folk-informed rock.

while the music industry is busy chasing bands that have one catchy track in a dozen, gravity engine is down in the shadows turning out honest, thought-provoking tracks that are brilliant at their best and great at their least. If I am forced to pick the brightest spots of this disc, I would have to nominate poor little starstruck, dracula & [debt] what you wanted. However, there really is not a bad track here. The sound bytes on this site don't do the music justice so pick up your own copy and judge for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
