Purchase Systems Officer CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Neutral Milk Hotel In The Aeroplane Over The Sea CD (1998)
Systems Officer album
 $12.19    
Neutral Milk Hotel leader Jeff Mangum is a popster who hears interstellar sounds as natural ingredients of his "pop." He was weaned with the inevitable four-track in his bedroom, schooled on a record collection stacked with John Cage and Captain Beefheart as well as the Beatles and the Kinks. There is an instant emotional intensity to Neutral Milk's music, and the seeds that were sewn on '96's lo-fi masterpiece ON AVERY ISLAND, bear an evolving fruit on IN THE AEROPLANE OVER THE SEA.
Mangum's psych-folk ...
| | Pinback Offcell CD (2003)
Systems Officer CD music
$8.09 
Rob Crow and Armistead B. Smith IV continue to create complex indie pop with smart, subtle structures on Pinback's Offcell. Vocal tracks harmonize, electronics punctuate, guitars punch clean, key changes shift quickly, and syncopated drums all swirl in the thick instrumentation, giving Offcell many dimensions. The members of Pinback write their own material that covers different areas, including the straight-ahead pop of "Microtonic Wave," angular prog rock of "B," and guitar-driven loopy Folk Implosion sound of the title track. "Victorious D" shows off the angular post-rock smarts of Pinback. Driving bass pumps along, while keys change and the keyboards accent sentimental vocals. "Grey Machine" is a catchy, repetitive gem that rounds out Offcell. ...
| | Explosions In The Sky Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place CD (2003)
Systems Officer music CDs
$12.05 
Explosions in the Sky is set to make a noticeable mark on the indie rock scene. It combines epic guitar architecture a la Sonic Youth, the spatial manipulation of slowcore bands like Low, and the instrumental rock ambition of upstarts like Mogwai. While the band's 2001 debut trafficked in ...
| | Pedro The Lion Achilles Heel CD (2004)
Systems Officer songs
$11.59
ACHILLES HEEL is a great leap forward for Pedro the Lion (the group is really singer/songwriter David Bazan's project--he plays most of the instruments, with help here from guitarist Casey Foubert and multi-instrumentalists James McAlister and TW Walsh). Distinguished from Pedro's earlier releases in its unified musical vision and superior songwriting, the album has an expansive, floating feel, but the whole is remarkably straightforward and ...

| | Hayden Elk-Lake Serenade CD (2004)
Systems Officer CD music
$12.75
The follow-up to his lauded SKYSCRAPER NATIONAL PARK, 2004's ELK-LAKE SERENADE finds Canadian singer/songwriter Hayden hitting a creative stride. Here the atmospheric expanse of SKYSCRAPER is scaled back to form catchier, tighter melodies that reveal themselves in a collection of memorably narrative songs. "Wide Eyes" drifts in with a spare piano-and-strings-based arrangement, conveying both heartbreak and newfound love in its lyrics. Relationships, both good and bad, are a central theme to many of SERENADE's tunes, and Hayden imbues these tales with his wry wit, particularly on the upbeat "Hollywood Ending," which finds the narrator in a surprise encounter with a beautiful movie star.
Hayden has been compared to Beck and Neil Young in the past, and although he shares some common ground with the folkier territories of both artists, he truly settles into his own musical identity on ELK-LAKE SERENADE. ...
| | Sultans Of Swing: The Very Best Of Dire Straits CD (1998)
Systems Officer music CDs
$11.19
Also includes material from Mark Knopfler's side project, The Notting Hillbillies.
Additional personnel includes: Sting, Jeff Porcaro, Joop de Korte.
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
This solid collection is a compelling career overview of one of rock's most distinctive groups. Led by Mark Knopfler, whose deadpan vocal style and stunning guitar technique characterize the band's sound, Dire Straits burst on the scene in 1978 with "Sultans of Swing." This VERY BEST OF begins there (even amid the ensemble's later hits, the lead-off ...

| | Dave Pirner Faces & Names CD (2002)
Systems Officer album
$10.49
Principally recorded at Kingsway Studios, New Orleans, Louisiana.
Could it be that after all those years in Soul Asylum, Dave Pirner has been harboring a secret desire to become a soul man? Actually, it may not be that deep a secret, since his band once recorded a cover of Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing," but Pirner's first solo album, Faces & Names, comes as something of a surprise from the frontman of the group formerly known as Loud Fast Rules. Anyone expecting Soul Asylum's punk-accented hard rock should be warned: Faces & Names is dominated by laid-back but committed R&B grooves, while Dave Pirner's vocals display a subtlety and nuance that was often muted by Dan Murphy's guitar work. Just as Grave Dancer's Union and Let Your Dim Light Shine found Pirner writing about more personal and topical themes, Faces & Names has a significantly higher soul-bearing quotient than his previous work, and while songs like "Start Treating People Right," "Teach Me to Breathe," and the title cut quite obviously wear their hearts on their sleeves, there's something genuine and even moving in his lyrics, and given his more refined delivery here, his more politically themed material doesn't sound as if he's hectoring. And while Faces & Names lacks the same physical power as Soul Asylum's best work, the best songs here manage to sound comfortable, magnetic, and passionate all at once; Pirner has made an album that he doubtless couldn't have made within the boundaries of Soul Asylum, and it proves he has a some tricks up his sleeve than one might have expected from his ...

| | Sunshine Underground Raise The Alarm CD (2006) Bonus Tracks; Japan
Systems Officer songs
$30.95
The Sunshine Underground's website has promoted the band as substantially different from Franz Ferdinand or fellow Leeds rockers the Kaiser Chiefs, but you shouldn't believe it for a second: this is more or less the same bass-heavy, '80s-influenced indie stuff that the other guys have put out already. What's different here is not the approach, which is essentially the same, but the ...
