    hi there.. welcome to the s.o.s.s. presence on MP3.com.

    what you will find here are all the released s.o.s.s. tracks in .mp3 format. i have been told this site is somewhat confusing, because there are too many song available. it occurred to me to limit the options so that only the more popoular songs were available for download, but it is very important to me that all my music be available for free to those who want to take the time to download it.

    so... for a quick guide to what is available here, this is a simple breakdown of what songs are what (organized by what CD they are on).

    songs from chronos mechanica are all of the industrial/goth genre. they range from very dark mellow tunes, to more upbeat heavy tunes, to the completely inane and confusing. many tracks have vocals. the most popular tracks from this one are 'blood on my hands', 'down', and 'finished'.

    songs from pipework one are kind of experimental 'instrumental' electronic tunes. you could call these ambient or trance, if you were liberal minded. check out the tracks 'timing is everything', and 'morpheme'.

    the EP potential is a preview of an album by the same name. the songs on this album are synth pop. they tend to be happy and bouncy in sound, but with a kind of dark, hateful, i'm-so-worth-less-you-screwed-me-over-i'll-never-forgive-you, feel to the lyrics/singing. the tracks 'the feast' and 'winters mourning' are my personal favourites.

    the album i am a lie features a more political message. these songs are what i call 'mix songs' in which there is a basic tune or beat laid down, with sample played above it, and often taking drastic changes in mood. the more accesible tracks on here are 'shit scared', 'the promised one', and 'crave currency'.

    the best ofCD is a redundant re-release of some of the more popular tracks from the first four albums. this is a good album to buy if you want to get a quick view of what s.o.s.s. has been in the past, but the songs on the album are not any different than on the original releases.

    and finally, (saving the best for last), the album time, light, and space is my most recent release, featuring songs of the ambient/experimental/whatever genre. i am very proud of this album. i would suggest listening to it from start to finish as the songs form a story and flow from one to the other, but if you are just interested in single tracks, try the songs, 'f*ck jail' (censorship sucks!), 'coin toss', and 'through a screen of smoke'.

    anyhow -- have fun and enjoy the site.


    oh btw: this is the message that was up here before. it's still true. (:


    what?.. you don't have a credit card?
    but you still want to buy a CD online?
    are you crazy?

    well hey - guess what. even if mp3.com doesn't care about you poor unfortunate souls without plastic, i still do. so scroll up and look just above the name of the band and you will see a tab that says 'contact'. click on that tab and it will bring you to a page where you can send me email. if you send me a message stating what CDs you want, how many of them you want, and your e-mail address/home address. i will respond and work out payment. generally check, money order, or cash works pretty well. the price is the same as on here, but it will take a little longer to deliver.

    thanks-

    ambient track with an industrial edge, slow,spacey, gritty. the song describes the feeling of ineffectiveness that comes from years of trying and being defeated. too weak for tears or rage. eventually it all slips away as you slip into sleep and dreams. but even that solipsistic oblivion isn't immune. lucidity. lies.

    please turn the bass up, as this song was made clean for the mix and the sound resolution, but the thick layer of bass needs to be felt not just heard.

    very mellow ambient, written from the point of view of the frequency band for cell phones during 'off peak' hours... this is the feeling of driving in the middle of the night down a two lane blacktop highway in the fog with the occasional undefinable something passing by.
