About this product
The impressive crux of Pagan Science, the sophomore album by Austin trio The Well, is that it's a multiplicity of itself. From the band's dual male/female vocals to their transcendently timeless sounds and erudite lyrical themes, Pagan Science is crystalline in it's complexity and clarity at the same time. The Well walk an intriguing line between authentic early 70s doom/heavy psych and the more frayed-edge-of-sanity weirdness of their hometown's legendary noise rock scene, whilst also splicing in shades of chamber choir vocals, occult rock and dark folk. Pagan Science was recorded with producer/engineer Chico Jones at Micro Mega Studio in 2016. Jones also previously engineered the band's debut album Samsara with producer Mark Deutrom [Melvins, Sunn0)))] in 2013. Samsara, released late September 2014 was ranked the #1 debut album of 2014 by The Obelisk and widely praised in the press. Likewise, the band's intense - some even say InchpossessedInch - live performances have earned them featured slots at Austin's Levitation Fest in 2015 & 2016, as well as tours with Kadavar, All Them Witches, Black Tusk and more.

![Sella - Well I Mean - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/3a1db9ca-b47c-4159-b11a-af588b132c3e.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
While the Front Bottoms continue to record and tour, Sella has also struck out on his own in an effort to keep things fresh. InchI've tried different hobbies over the years,Inch he explains. InchBut ultimately the thing I always come back to is songwriting and story telling. It's just something I have to do and I have to find new ways to do it.InchLyrically, the album moves around geographically with references to an American shark in an Australian river, along with songs titled after South Dakota and Wichita, Kansas. Sella has titled songs after places in the past (Rhode Island, Santa Monica and West Virginia all come to mind) but these new songs feel more like internal landscapes, metaphoric places for what's going on inside Sella's head.Sonically, many of the songs feature ambient rivers of sound that run parallel to the voice and guitar rivers of blended instruments; repeated piano and guitar melodies play off each other, horn sections ebb and flow, there's even a flugelhorn that bends around the edges of jazz. Sella stays out there searching for new currents and inlets in that river of sound, the shark out on the prowl with a devil clutching his fin. Prepare to be enveloped!
