| Puzzles Made A Second Ep!
Earlier on in the year I released an EP called 'Uno' under a couple of different project names.. first it was
Delusion Twin, then I remixed and remastered it under Duality and the Republic. Recently, I changed the
name again to Occupants at the discretion of Thurston Moore. While the first EP was a heavy cross between
Deftones, Nine Inch Nails and Karnivool, I decided to make a pop/alternative EP just because I had the
songs and needed the production experience that comes with recording, mixing and mastering a record.
Anyway, it's seven tracks (two of which are in the download only) and it's basically a cross between
Radiohead, Simon and Garfunkel and Damnation-era Opeth. I guess you could call it doom pop. You can
download it for free by clicking 'Buy Now' and entering 0 at occupants.bandcamp.com | 1 | | Occupants The Aviator | 2 | | Occupants Uno | 3 | | Opeth Damnation | 4 | | Simon and Garfunkel The Best of Simon and Garfunkel | 5 | | Radiohead OK Computer | |

It's basically a concept record - a narrative told from the point of view of a character, not the writer. I played all the instruments, did vocals, recorded, mixed and mastered it, did the artwork, etc etc. Feel free to rate it on the site! | Ovrot

07.22.12 | Nah, it's not m/. I have been known to m/, but I've taken a momentary hiatus from the m/ | Ovrot
07.22.12 | so it's prog? | Butkuiss
07.22.12 | Can vouch for how fucking awesome this is. | Puzzles
07.22.12 | Yeah, some prog, some pop, some alt rock, some indie. | Puzzles
07.22.12 | It's like Queen on heroin. | Butkuiss
07.22.12 | Wait, what!? Thurston Moore?! | Puzzles
07.22.12 | Oh yeah, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSSYgQnSSig | D41V30N
07.22.12 | I liked the name "Duality and the Republic" :(. | thumbcrusher
07.22.12 | I think Occupants is better band name. Duality and the republic is still cool, maybe that would be a better name for an album | Puzzles
07.22.12 | That was a terrible band name. Anybody want it? | Puzzles
07.22.12 | (Duality, that is) | Butkuiss
07.22.12 | Ha, nah. I've got my own band names saved up in a little bank.
If only I could use them. :( | Puzzles
07.22.12 | You could always make drum and bass music. Add some synths, and bob's your uncle. Superior Drummer is your friend. | Vooligan
07.22.12 | Sweet, will download :) | deepintheorchard
07.22.12 | To be honest, it was a pretty bad name. But these EP's are really good and you have a crazy voice. Good work! | Puzzles
07.23.12 | I'm glad somebody thinks so! Thanks man. |
