But I Couldnt Rewind
"I like the sound but what does it all mean"? That is relative to where you stand, and what you do as you listen to it or anything elseand definately how it should be. Analogdriver formed in early 2002 by drummer Martin Medina, vocalist/writer Ricky Rodriguez and bassist Matt Rodriguez, Analogdriver fuses open chords, 5 string baritone guitars, unusual tunings, and melodically hard vocals to bring
ear- friendly progressive hard melodic rock to those that the radio has forgotten. In 2004 Analogdriver had built a platform for their ideas with their self-titled first release of what evolved into the Soulcoat EP and in 2004/2005 with live guitarist David Martinez, the band set out to do shows month after month to build their following. Analogdriver's sound is unique. In a genre where many bands can sound similar to another there certainly is something rare about the writing here. Through various influences including some well known ones, our band always have a well of inspiration to write original ideas from. Since 2007, Analogdriver has decided to continue it's presence as a "music release-only" band, but the music and band is still live and well. New goals for this music are to get it out on the indie radio or indie/ commercial film scene for use in movies perhaps, so if you're a filmaker let us know. We also are interested in having our music in skate videos or extreme sports videos, so anyone interested in using our sounds, please let us know. Playing with the progressive likes of Revolve, Onesidezero, Fissure, and several others, Analogdriver's made constant effort to bring about true quality with original style. More tones are coming your way, with hopes of being played in new cities soon and heard by the right people. Anything you can help to bring this about will be so appreciated. . Farewell til' the radio
ANALOGDRIVER- a new word referring to that of Nostalgia. the old technology of the mind that causes the new to re-create, unfold, to seed like spores taking what you learn through the clips of life. what you experience upon death, daily awakening, or self-revalation can be a form of "analogdriver". it is in that very loop of flash-life sequence that you see images of your youth, your sorrow, your origin, the old things that push or drive you to become the very things you either love or detest. An analogdriver is the original thought and idea that have brought you out of the ashes to carve the very thing you are. Your music tatses, your inspiration that made you play the music you do, the televisions that shaped your personality, the ways in which you speak, act, and understand are the result of your analogdrivers. And as all existence turns one thing into something else, the old will continue to re-invent the new with a static radio beside.
