Until recently, Boston-based prog leaning alt/power-pop/new wave trio “Elsewhere” had been best known for their single “Don’t You Believe Me Baby” – a dynamic cover of a previously unrecorded early 80’s Police song. That atypical release helped the band generate over half a million streams on Spotify and score a full-page story in the Boston Herald; forever tying the band to Sting & Co. This was soon followed up by the “banthem” (ballad/anthem) “The Pledge”, mixed by Grammy Nominated producer Mark Needham (The Killers, Imagine Dragons, Pink, Elton John), which broke important ground by tackling the often-taboo subject of Alzheimer’s Disease.
Now, Elsewhere’s ambitious new concept album Life…is a Fraction shows that the band has reached a creative zenith; an original rock epic that shakes the foundations not only of what everyone has expected from the New England trio, but also of the lives of everyone who listens…This album weaves together a fascinating, semi-autobiographical narrative about a protagonist’s unwitting discovery of the fractional theory of incremental time perception following a troubling diagnosis. In short, the main character chillingly discovers that time speeds up incrementally as he/she grows older, so much so that they can now see time move. The thought provoking 10-part suite matches arena like prog rock with easily digestible modern alt/power pop. This work by the trio seeks to be genre defying and in today’s rock landscape potentially revolutionary…
