On the heels of their 2009 self-titled debut EP, Philadelphia’s Clean Equations return to the scene with their first full-length album, People/Variables. Expanding on the carefully crafted soundscapes of the EP, Clean Equations deliver a ten-song album full of soaring harmonies and layers of melodic guitars, organs, pianos, and the majestic strings of the Astoriadelphia Orchestra.
Song such as “The Main Line” and “Christmas Daze” satisfy the softer and more minimalist side of the equation, while “On the US Treasury” and “Buried Translations” deliver the epic indie rock anthems you would expect from this diverse twelve-piece band.
Fronted by chief songwriter Michael Nyhan, Clean Equations is a mix of talented and like-minded musicians from Philadelphia, New York City, and even Melbourne, Australia.
Clean Equations debut full-length will be released on limited edition vinyl with digital download via State Capital Records on August 31, 2010.
For after dinner, late night entertainment or to engage pleasant day-dreams, Clean Equations features well-written, gorgeous, harmony-filled, music that will stay with you long after your first listen!” – PowerPop Overdose
Frustrated as I often am with the insubstantial trends of modern-era indie rock, for those interested in tapping into actual underground music, it’s a bit of a golden age. Take Clean Equations’ self-titled debut, an indie-pop EP that draws equally on the sophisticated nerd-outs of Built to Spill and Grandaddy and the more majestic aspirations of bands like Explosions in the Sky.” – Rawkblog
