New Horizons, the second offering by Ordinary Mile was released in October 2007 after finishing their self-titled Album in 2006 (http://cdbaby.com/cd/ordinarymile). Ordinary Mile includes musicians Steve Longworth (Keyboards & Guitars) and Matt Kubley (Bass) along with original members Marty Kolakowski (Guitars, Keyboards & Drums) and Randy Sandusky (Vocals).
New Horizons can best be described as contemporary rock with progressive influences and melodic hooks using ambient synthesizer textures with driving guitars.
"Congratulations to all involved--a fine piece of art." -Rbilling
"Very contemporary sound- much prog can sound a little dated but this isn't the case here. I like the dark, slightly gothic feel to the track (helped immensely by the vocals) which offsets the more traditional hard rock elements to good effect- helps the track stand out. The music is technically excellent but well reigned in- not too showy. Good!" -Sphincterwolf
"This is some nice sounding progressive pop. Solid guitar playing and very appealing disto! Pretty efficient rhythm section, these guys know what they're doing!" -Ineedmusic
"I typically offer very constructive criticisms, even on songs I love, there is usually something that another set of ears can point out to offer ways to improve things.
DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING ON THIS SONG!" - jjd
"Cool intro! Engaging opening riff, with very cool bass / drum break down. Vocals are perfectly placed in the mix - kudos to the engineer and singer! I love the key solo around 1:15 - Moog? This band is cool - I would check them out live!" - Gates_of_Light

Very, very good.
author: Paul Carter
Just stumbled across these guys. This album is great, some of the melodies are excellent and I like the singer's voice a lot. Fairly awesome guitar riffs on a few of the heavier songs, and the quieter ballad of 'The Rose' is full of emotion. The music has a very modern feel to it.
All in all, these guys are clearly talented and i'm looking forward to another release. My only criticism is that there isn't much variety on this cd. They know their 'sound', and they stick to it.
But still a complete bargain at $5!

WOW!!!
author: Dr. Suess...
This album is an excellent tribute to the late Kubley-Khan. I would imagine that everything that each of you had envisioned this album being still could not amount to what it actually turned out to be. The emotion in all facets of the music is ridiculously good (reference the 6th track (HIDE)). For an avid lover of hardcore music (shai hulud, hatebreed, sick of it all, etc...) this CD, New Horizons, has not left my CD player in weeks and there are no plans on removing it anytime soon.
Amazing job guys...keep it up!
