Search - factor(x) :: operation paperclip

factor(x) combines pop, new wave, electronica, and metamorphic rock with a pinch of guerilla warefare. With a mixture of Kraftwerk and Brian Eno-influenced tracks, and sounds that have never before been heard, operation paperclip could only fit into one completely new genre: Metamorphic Rock. "This is the age of artificial life form dreams," exclaims Kein in a robotic tone on "Push My Buttons." It is clear that something new has set foot on the musical world, something you may not be ready for. Pi, Pythagoras, obtuse angles, remote controls and Alexander Graham Bell may not be typical topics in music today. But factor(x) is no typical band. Relying mostly on synthesizers, percussion and analog drum machines, factor(x) brings excitement to a music industry that desperately needs originality. NNMaddox's wonderful production brings together the raw power of the band. He polishes a diamond in the rough to create the newest sensation in the 14mercy army, factor(x).
