Foreverinmotion is a one man project by Brendan Thomas! Brendan mixes his stuff himself at home in his studio and for an independent artist he's done pretty well! I bought his second and most well known album unheard at Independant Music store Bullmoose Music store when I read the sticker that said "For Fans Of....." on it! I also liked the cover so I took the gamble! For once the sticker was right and I loved the album! It actually had what many fans call an "organic" feel to it and it really worked in the albums favor! For fans of acoustic based rock in general this is a great artist!

This is the album I own:

The Beautiful Unknown

Here are the standout tracks for me:

Hot Air Balloon
(my favorite)



Avalanche
(lot's of acoustic energy)




The Clothes We Walk In
(love the lyrics to this)

I don't believe in the clothes we walk in.
I don't believe in the names we were given.
I don't believe in the skin we were born in.
Nor do I believe in the world we were raised in

But I believe in love.
And I believe in us.

I don't believe in much of anything on TV.
And its sour and synthetic taste of reality.
I don't believe in what it makes us think.
Its just a distraction to keep our minds off of the real thing.

But I believe in love.
And I believe in us.
I believe in love
I believe in one.

I don't believe in any kind of religion
Where ideas are blindly forced upon our children.
And I don't believe in preaching faith with fear.
We shouldn't be focused on anything but making the most of the lives were living here.

I just believe in love.
And I believe in us
I believe in love.
I believe in one.

We are the sum of time and energy and pure starlight
And this energy which made the world is the same of mankind.
There's no separation save what separates your mind
And I hope well see this truth as one before the end of our time.
It could change everything.

Over seas, in our homes, or in our minds
I sing for the innocent all across these great divides.
I don't believe in any of these wars
Cause I don't believe in the illusions were been fighting for.

Now we need to believe in love.
In peace, in change, and in the dream to rise above.
Right now we need to believe in love.
Right now we need love.


Magic
(great opener)

Well, since researching this artist again as a refresher I found he has a new album out so I'll definitely be updating this again! :grinthumb

Sooty, you know I depend on you for new music, and you have hit a winner here. I like the sound of this guy. Impressive for a one man show.


I am going to have to get the debut and start from there. He has 3 albums out, right?

The S/T, The Beautiful Unknown, and Sunrise.


I will post my follow-ups after I have a chance to get the albums and give him a proper listen

:tup:

Definitely right up my alley Soot :grinthumb

My housemate is also listening and giving a thumbsup. As you pointed out, the lyrics to The Clothes We Wear are spot on. If only everybody thought this way. On the vid for The Clothes We Wear who are the other band members?

I listened to the songs in the OP, and I absolutely love Avalanche! The Clothes We Walk In was also very good, despite the poor quality and Magic was stunning as well. Great find Soot, and you hit the nail on the head when you said I'd like them! :D

Sunny, I don't know the names as Brendon creates the music himself so whatever band he has may just be his touring band. Not sure if the members change much on that! Awesome to know I've got the word to you and your roommate! :grinthumb

Sal, Having your seal of approval is always awesome!

Guys, you've got to check out the myspace and hear the title track Sunrise Left! Can't stop listening to it on my I-tunes!
