Synopsis

Album Description

The debut release from NYC-based rock band M-LAB. From Baser Elements is composed of 13 highly distinct tracks--there are no throw-aways or afterthoughts here--all of which bear the unmistakable M-LAB stamp of Rock Drama. The five members weave an intricately composed musical fabric, evoking the rich textures of Peter Gabriel, the pathos of Tori Amos, combined with the grandeur of Queen. This record is challenging yet exerts a gravity that is all but irresistible.

CD Reviews

Diverse and entertaining throughout

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I heard these guys at a club in NYC and thought their show was impressive. But like so many groups I feared that their CD would be lacking the life that they had at the show. This was not the case at all. The disc really brings out the dynamics in their music, and the play between piano and violin is amazing.

I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants an entertaining, musically intelligent album that gets you into the music from the first track to the last and still leaves you wanting more. Can't wait for their tour!"
