Grayscale

Avoiding the trap of overblown arrangements requires a great deal of restraint in these days when the modern recordist carts about complete symphony orchestras to the coffee shop in his laptop. With lush, layered arrangements that still play to the ear as clean and simple, Grayscale dances past that trap with That Flawless Flashing Day, their self-produced frosh outing. With all the requisite hooks and beats in all the right places, the 13 cuts of pop-goodness that this studio sense is applied to come across with a Brit-pop sweetness tempered by an occasional dollop of darkness. Durn good alternapop from this Cleveland duo. - Amie St.

(Billboard Publicity Wire) August 6, 2007 -- The long awaited and anticipated worldwide release of the debut CD
from Grayscale, is on August 21 and has revealed an upbeat sound featuring a new delicate touch; a mixture of
captivating melodies and heartfelt lyrics. With their transition to Sunset Records, the band's major indie record
label debut, there will be five singles available to Top forty and Adult contemporary radio formats.
Grayscale's intangible style is shared with no other band, having created a colorful, distinctive and unparalleled
sound with their album, That Flawless Flashing Day. Through a myriad of songs, the band has transcended an
unequivocal presence in pop music. Grayscale front man Douglas Dunbar composed the debut CD with William
Weaver. That Flawless Flashing Day includes a track listing of 13 songs that flow coherently from melodic songs
to ballads to resilient yet solemn love songs.
The album opens with the salient and superlative track "TMI." Other songs such as "One More Day" and "Stuck
On Me" are lyrically intimate and melodically driven tracks, Doug pleads with heart-wrenching sincerity at every
hook and verse. "So Credulous I'm Blind" is the wonderful ballad that has some of the most accessible lyrics on
the CD. "Any Girl Will Do," Grayscale's first single off the new record, is another vivid track, infectious and
enticing followed by "Deep White," which show off the beautifully strong vocals. Many of the tracks on this CD
proclaim the feelings of an unwavering love between two people.
Other spectacular and enlightening tracks from That Flawless Flashing Day include "Out In Cold," "A Summer
Washed Away," and "A Matter Of Time."
Grayscale seems to be delving into great musical territory with this debut CD. Timeless, catchy yet versatile, this
band has reached an amazing plateau, leaving only ever-rising greatness in their wake.
Sunset Records, Grayscales record label, is getting ready for a big push beginning this summer. Don Lichterman,
the head of Sunset Records says that he "cannot be more proud of our A&R system. "Sunset opened its doors two
years ago on its anniversary date of August 6th and in that time, we have two artists on the Grammy Awards
nomination ballot for Best New Artist."
Grayscale is on the nomination ballot for the 50th Grammy Award show for Best New Artist as well as for Best
Duo or Pop Group with Vocals, Best Alternative Music Album and Best Traditional Pop Album. For fans of The
Killers and of Blink 182, this is the perfect CD.
