Troy Lawlor : Biography of a Machine
Biography of a Machine is a collection of songs that I've worked on over the past few months. They're a combination of keyboard, guitar and electronic instruments recorded and mixed at home on my Macintosh. The album tells the story of a man seeking a connection to his emotions as he gets involved in a grand conflict as a mechanical war machine. My goal was to compare the dehumanizing effects of war and technology in a compelling fashion. The result was a little bit on the dark side, but it seems as if it's hard to write bright and happy concept albums. The following is a tracklisting, including running time. Clicking on a song's title will take you to its lyrics if there are any.
Downloads:
Promo MP3, 2.9 megs, 3 minutes : A sampler, which contains a few seconds from every track on the album.
Eternal Frost MP3, 2.7 megs, 3 minutes : The entire song, "Eternal Frost", from the album.
