Review

One man band project  actually Michael Clark 's intodown  name the first  album ''Brave New World'' maybe borrowed from the  Aldous Huxley's populous Science fiction  book , as  you can see reading on the title songs Michael Clark   aims to future there is no trace of epic or  70's hard rock traditional sound on this record. The  album  starts with ''Elevator''  a  rock  n roll  based in structured  song with space psychedelic background improvised with trumpet at the ending seem to be a cool starting track but  you will not impressed for now, ''Intodown'' take you to the 80's American desert scene close to The Leaving Trains and The Gun Club ballads with a mellow  hilarious guitar leading all the way."Fire" sound very atmospheric could be accompanying to a  Western  movie soundtrack . ''V''  is intro to ''Revolution'' in this part the track disappointment me but  some guitar solo work here keep me in, also spoken words and spirituality don't miss in this work in the track ''Nostradamous''.

Cerebral , mind experimental music from intodown  and trippy psychedelic requires to focus your attention otherwise you will  not be able to catch the meaning through the riffs that  lack here and replacing with improvisation and jams. intodown music can describe near to Helios Creed late period musically and visually to recording to Italian mulsti-instrumentalist Paul Chain also late period , Michael Clark influences are 60 's garage psychedelic and 80's  soundtracks westerns etc , anyone how buy this this record prepared for a psychedelic journey the right time.
