S.Q.E.–Rise of the Vulcans

You gotta listen to believe. At least that’s what I used to think, but after listening to S.Q.E.’s new work, Rise of the Vulcans, I don’t know what to believe anymore. It’s not like I believed in anything to start with, but after a few plays of this recording, I wonder if there is any real purpose left for linear music? What does it matter if songs aren’t songs? Must they adhere to some pre ordained format or should a song sing like a long Blake poem?  I think they should and so does S.Q.E., better known to me as J. Greco. The pieces in this new recording are afterthoughts, instances, memories, and a whole other order of experiences, chopped together masterfully by a real pro of the digital mixing realm. At times his work makes you feel like you are lost in a soundtrack that would best accompany a John Carpenter film, and at other times you are just simply lost, unfamiliar with your sonic surroundings, waiting for a hook. But it never comes.

Once again J. Greco proves that the poetry is not just in the song, it’s in the music. Here’s what he has to say:

The release . . .feature[s] vocals by Tracy Jeffrey, Tony Wakeford, Kris Force, and Danielle Hlatky as well as musical contributions by Alan Trench, Ure Thrall and Dylan Willemsa. S.Q.E. is currently planning a tour of Europe for August which will feature J Greco, Alan Trech, and Tracy Jeffrey. Possible New York shows are also in the works for around easter time, which will include Alan Trench, Tracy Jeffrey, J Greco, Danielle Hlatky, Dylan Willemsa, and who knows……, maybe Ure Thrall will grace us with his presence. God Help us.
