Overview:

Is the role of music and sound purely for the entertainment of a small minority or is it a tool for which the human race can use to further progress itself as a whole? Can the tonality and frequency interactions of sound in a mathematical sense shed light on the basic root level interactions between humans?

With Systems of Social Recalibration, Aspects of Physics attempts to bring the discussions of such subjects to your attention. Evolving from such important San Diego groups as the politically-minded hardcore group Rice, the indie-pop blissfactory of Thingy, and the minimalist Krautrock-influenced Physics (known for their 45-minute jam sessions based on 1 chord), AOP has taken the next logical step by assimilating the sounds and aesthetics of the electronic and experimental music genres. Each of these previous endeavors plays a part in what AOP has become, resulting in a release with a broad spectrum of appeal. Those straight edge punk rockers you see over there? They'll dig the politics and philosophy AOP take on. The jaded indie rockers? They'll love the minimalist guitar work (I think they're calling it "post-post-rock" these days). Oh, and we can't forget the hipster IDM geekboys -- plenty of just-released-yesterday-plugins, DSP wankery, and retro-cool lo-fi stylings to keep them at bay.

Members Jason Soares, JFRE 'Robot' Coad, and Matt Lorenz see music as more than a few 1's and 0's on a shiny plastic disc. They believe that visual artwork should receive the same level of attention as the music itself -- they are, in fact, one in the same. This is evidenced in the stunningly beautiful 12-page full color booklet diagramming their ideals, and philosophies.
