“Symmetry is not Pop. Stripped it to its most primitive & visceral core, this is music written for picture. Your life is the film & this is the soundtrack.”
Here’s the sprawling, atmospheric new 2-hour, 37-track imaginary film score from SYMMETRY, “the project that began as a conceptual tangent between Glass Candy, Chromatics, Mirage, & Desire’s more abstract sides.” This is allegedly not Johnny Jewel’s rumored rejected (and subsequently scrapped) Drive score, although it certainly would’ve worked beautifully. Look for a triple-LP to drop in 2012, but for now you can listen to the whole thing here, including the gorgeous closing track “Streets of Fire,” which features a vocal turn from Chromatics’ Ruth Radelet:

He names it symmetry, the image is of a car, it’s about the length of the film and it would have ‘worked beautifully’ but this is not that?
Hmm…

half way done. really cool vibes.
Fucking Awesome!
They can tell what they want. THIS would have been the DRIVE score, I’m pretty sure.
The only thing wrong about this is “Imaginary”. Needs to be fixed.
Please? :(
Can anyone tell me when and where the vinyl will be released??
Very well done and very ambitious, but nothing new.
Perfect!
