The Physics of Meaning



A few weeks ago, I went to Velour to see Somber Party and saw some east-coast natives as a positive externality. In fact, describing them as a positive externality is a gross understatement. I was absolutely blown away. Not generally one to rave about bands, I can't help myself in this case. The mournful, soulful pieces that Physics of Meaning played were the sort that makes you nostalgic for things you've never experienced. Lead vocals, string and a less-processed live sound blended together for an audio ecstasy with each carefully constructed neo-symphonic climax. If that's too vague for you, I apologize. I was left speechless that night and I haven't fully recovered.

Check them out on their website.
