Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky

Recently signed to Tee Pee Records, Earthless issues their debut album, Rhythms from A Cosmic Sky, this May. While Mario, Mike and Isaiah can be the most precise of musicians, the group also revels in adding a healthy amount of jam to the mix, as evidenced by the album's two extended tracks "Godspeed" and "Sonic Prayer". There's a lot of improvisation, a lot of room to be spontaneous and wander off. We always have certain riffs that we know to go into. If the beat changes a little bit, and we give the...we call it the 'cosmic eye' or the 'cosmic nod' to go into this other part that we have, we just have these certain sections that we go into, and it always seems to work out." The album's third track is a cover of The Groundhogs' "Cherry Red."
