Cloudland
they
float
drift
sail on the wind
don’t need anchors
know tempest and calm
hide moon and stars
rain on our parade
enhance sunrise and sunset
depress us
inspire us
make us want to see beyond.

I thought that this poem would be a great way for me to to begin. You see, it sums up beautifully the many moods you experience when listening to The Vinyl Clouds. Their music can sound like dreams floating just out of reach through an open sky, but can also flicker and bounce like the hypnotic neon lights of their home town otherwise known as Sin City.
The Vinyl Clouds have been together in some form for about three years now, but this current incarnation, consisting of Dennis Osinski, Warren Duprey and Chris Nichols have only been making music together since the top of 2007 and let me say, as someone who's seen them through the lows and the highs, the the good and the bad, that this line up is the strongest to date.
You see, great bands are always comprised of these key elements;
A unique voice, catchy songs, and musicians that are not only great individually, but who also play together like the wheels and gears of a finely made swedish time piece.
This is now...
Realizing this, they hastily retreated in to the unconcious of the public mind and started to record some demos.
Warren Duprey states that “we knew that we’d finally hit upon something with this line up, so we broke out some gear and proceded to cut these tracks in a few days between our drummers rehearsal room and my bedroom.”
Needless to say, creativity flowed like wine at a kings feast.
The songs varied in mood and content. A few samples from these sessions can be found right here on Myspace. From “How Long”
, a song about longing for some thing more and the insufferable wait which sometimes undermines the joy of the journey, to “You Will Follow Her” a song about the misguided sexual and emotional longings for another person from a stalkers point of view.
While blue skies can be beautiful and invigorating, it can be said that it is the occasional whisp, or billowy cotton creeping over it’s openess that gives it it’s beauty and maybe even represents a revolution of sorts.. Change amidst the banality of the blue-skies.
The Vinyl Clouds are one of a small group of up and coming indie bands that are destined to rivigorate and and create some excitement amongst an otherwise lethargic music scene.
They’ll be starting their first CD this winter and are shooting for an official release date of sometime in August 2008.
