         █░█    Once in a while you stumble upon music that blows  █░█
         █░█    your head off. These occasions are as rare as      █░█
         █░█    they are wonderful. This, dear people, is such a   █░█
         █░█    moment. We urge everyone to investigate this       █░█
         █░█    genius starborn songwriter and recommend each and  █░█
         █░█    everyone to embrace him fully. This is without     █░█
         █░█    hesitation one of the absolute highlights of this  █░█
         █░█    year so far.                                       █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Andrew Rothbard's solo debut is a totally          █░█
         █░█    tripped-out mix of pop-influenced folk and dark,   █░█
         █░█    heavy psych. He spent the last dozen years         █░█
         █░█    playing keyboards and bass (simultaneously) in     █░█
         █░█    legendary outfits VSS, Slaves and Pleasure         █░█
         █░█    Forever, and "Abandoned Meander" continues to      █░█
         █░█    showcase his virtuoso abilities. After the demise  █░█
         █░█    of Pleasure Forever, Rothbard became a bit of a    █░█
         █░█    recluse, obsessively working on the songs that     █░█
         █░█    evolved into this psych-folk masterpiece. He       █░█
         █░█    spent three years on the project, working each     █░█
         █░█    track into a state of absolute perfection.         █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    The album is the first in a planned five-record    █░█
         █░█    series outlining the Discordiant concept of the    █░█
         █░█    "law of fives": Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis,     █░█
         █░█    Parenthesis, and Paralysis, each of which          █░█
         █░█    represents a different stage of life. Rothbard     █░█
         █░█    explains the first stage, "[Thesis] manifests      █░█
         █░█    chaos protected by Goddess Eris, codified by       █░█
         █░█    hexagram 2 of the I Ching and directed entirely    █░█
         █░█    toward Yin. She lives on the planet Venus, and     █░█
         █░█    her Tarot card appears as the High Priestess       █░█
         █░█    Trump II."                                         █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Needless to say, "Abandoned Meander" has a heavy   █░█
         █░█    California feel (although Rothbard originally      █░█
         █░█    hails from Smoochland, Colorado). Elements of      █░█
         █░█    sunshiny pop, folk, rock and noise all filter      █░█
         █░█    through one mind-fucked, psychedelic channel. Not  █░█
         █░█    one of the thirteen simple, beautifully written    █░█
         █░█    tunes will disappoint Pleasure Forever fans,       █░█
         █░█    freak-folk fans, or anyone else for that matter.   █░█
         █░█    Record number two in the series, representing the  █░█
         █░█    Antithesis stage, is slated for release in 2007.   █░█
