While the headline from Blabbermouth was about the band Orbs being interviewed on "Ryan's Rock Show," other than that mention ... well, they buried the lead, as it were. Actually, I was struck by the album artwork - it's sci-fi ish and I'm a sci-fi geek -- and the description of their music and so am "reposting" it here.... anyway, here's the item:

"Ryan's Rock Show" recently conducted an interview with Orbs, a band which is made up of Dan Briggs (Between The Buried And Me), Ashley Ellyllon (Abigail Williams, Crade Of Filth), Adam Fisher and Clayton "Goose" Holyoak (Fear Before), and Chuck Johnson (Torch Runner). You can now watch the chat here.

Asleep Next To Science, the debut album from Orbs, is now available in stores and online.



With dark, whimsical stories expressed through space-rock interludes and the seamless infusion of ethereal lyrics over delicate piano work, Orbs effortlessly showcase their distinctly cinematic sound on the new album. Asleep Next To Science steps outside of traditional song structure and envelops listeners into a whole new realm of sounds and musical experiences that unite emotion, nature, and space through quirky, unexpected rhythms, melodies, and experimental progressions.

Revolver magazine has described the album as "one of the most ambitious debuts in recent memory" with moments that are "utterly breathtaking." Alternative Press notes the dramatic nature of the album comparing it to "the most involved and twisted nursery rhyme you've never heard."

Orbs have been on tour with Junius, with their last show on September 5, and then will tour with Trophy Scars (September 6 - September 12). The fall tour kicked off with the band's CD-release show on August 19 at Legitimate Business in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Guitarist and co-founder Dan Briggs states of the release, "It's been three years since Ashley and I started writing Asleep Next To Science together and it's amazing that the album is finally out for everyone to discover. I hope that everyone enjoys the adventure!"

Asleep... was released by Equal Vision Records on August 17. Tracklisting: Sayer Of The Law / A Man Of Science / Megaloblastic Madness / The Northwestern Bearitories A: We the Animal / The Northwestern Bearitories B: Kid Cancer / People Will Read Again / Something Beautiful / Lost At Sea / Eclipsical
