SUMMARY:PARADOX at De Barra's Folk Club
DESCRIPTION:Price: FREE\nClick here to buy tickets: http://www.debarra.ie\nAge Limit: 18+\n\nDetails: Official Album Launch for the 4th full length Paradox release 'Chapters'. \nThe band return with their fourth full length studio album to date which has been taking shape for over a year at Wavefield Recording Studios in Bantry, West Cork with multi tasking musician and engineer Brian Casey on the desk. \nTitled 'Chapters' the 14 track album combines a variety of new sounds some of  which have not yet been heard on any previous Paradox album. The first single 'Nothing Lasts' features slow melancholic Cello tones carrying the song to it's climatic refrains of 'Nothing Lasts'. A music video also accompanies the single. Cello makes an appearance on various other tracks on the album such as the track 'Eat' which subject focuses on the treatment of animals in factory farms and was initially inspired by the controversial documentary Earthlings. \nThe new album has been a working progress for over a year which originated in September 2013 with songwriter Pete Mac playing all instruments on the recordings. Paradox drummer Mike Mac joined his brother Pete in the studio for a session in May 2014 after dropping back from his Canadian travels to drum on 4 tracks on the album. Two further tracks were also recorded at Mikes studio in Canada later in the year including the re-recording of an older Paradox track 'Shame for my Name' which originally appeared on the debut Paradox album 'Circle of Growth'. \nOverall 'Chapters' is far more experimental than any previous album with the band pushing their limits as much as possible in the studio which included recording in different rooms, distorting various bass sounds and having what became a trademark routine for many songs of a noise track when recording the electric guitar. The Noise Track basically consisted of Pete improvising spontaneously with a heavily distorted guitar while recording over various tracks with nothing rehearsed as the noise track was being recorded to add an extra live feel to certain tracks. \nAs the album name suggests this is the next chapter in the band's history with many songs reflecting chapters in the band member's lives. \n\nParadox will be playing DeBarra's in Clonakilty on Friday, January 30th as part of their album launch . Doors 9.30pm and it's Free Admission. \nThere will also be copies of the new Paradox album on sale for the special price of €5 plus plenty more goodies.
