This EP relates the short story of a senile WWII veteran who flees society, searching for a candid connection with the world, and finds that his only companions are a traffic-worn pinecone and the disheartening essence of Time.
Bio / Background
'Captain Holmes and the Whale of Time' is not merely an EP; it is an unorthodox crumb of artwork in the field of Alternative Rock. These three tracks, recorded at Tree Sound Studios with producer John Holmes, have already succeeded in highlighting Crumbling Arches' strong and progressive presence in the Atlanta music scene and have attracted the attention of fans and industry executives alike.
This EP provides thought-provocative themes that greatly surpass the predictable subject matter of mainstream rock. Adorning 'Captain Holmes and the Whale of Time' are songs that address subjects including the harsher aspects of national identity, the parallels between a pinecone and an ascetic prophet, and the questionable essence of Time. This EP's fresh sound, meshing soft, beautiful melodies with invigorating and haunting eruptions of energy, greatly contributes to the unique sound that is Crumbling Arches.
