Everything You Knew Before You Knew Everything

by Static in Verona

supported by

Richard RR Right off it reminds me of Sad Day For Puppets with a little electronica twist...Not a bad thing at all! Favorite track: Bitter Branches.

Dental Drill Kick ass indie pop with stunning vocals. Reminiscent of everything that you have ever heard... and more. Superb from first to last (including the bonus track).
A richness and quality of production that's right up there with the best of independent releases.
An astonishing solo work bursting with so much good stuff that it would be crass to select a favourite track. Surely one of the albums of the year.

about

THE ALBUM IS CURRENTLY NAME-YOUR-PRICE!

Since the 2010 release of the debut album, "Be Quiet As You Leave", Static in Verona has found additional influence in various music, such as 1990's Shoegaze, Nugget's garage rock and even classical music and jazz. All of this has permeated into the new songs on the follow-up album, "Everything You Knew Before You Knew Everything".

Static in Verona will be releasing the follow-up album "Odd Anthem" on August 28th, 2015. Please come back and check it out

"Caught my ear right off the bat. Pop music with a nice little twist."
- WXRT radio host Richard Milne

"Static In Verona's Rob Merz is so adept at creating sonic landscapes with layered vocals and sounds, it's virturally impossible to believe this is the work of one musician.."
- Broken-Hearted Toy blog

"Nothing short of pop (in the technical sense of the word) genius."
- A Curious Monogram blog

Everything that Bryan Scary touches is musical gold... at first when he branched out from the Shredding Tears to do Evil Arrows I was heartbroken... but these songs are full of the solid power-pop brilliance that his earlier work exhibited, if a bit more guitar-driven. Wonderful stuff! Matthew Laurence
