Static Diary Release Video for Phrase from Business
We’ve previously written about Scott Danbom‘s new project, Static Diary, and today we’re happy to share the animated video for album track “Phrase from Business.” It’s a delicate number from the get-go, with a bare piano accompanying Scott’s voice; that piano eventually leans into a heavier electronic pulse. Danborn’s voice has this certain fragility to it that’s intoxicating; it hits it’s peak as the song swell’s around the chorus. About two minutes in, the song surges into a heavy handed jam of sorts, fuzzy and ominous ’til the fadeout. It’s a gorgeous number, and you’ll find it on the Static Diary LP, which drops Friday.
And, if you happen to be in the Denton area, Scott and band have their release show at Dan’s Silver Leaf on Saturday night!
You attach the name of Centro-matic to anything and you can pretty much guarantee that someone at ATH is going to give it some time. So here we are with Static Diary, the project of Scott Danbom and the announcement of a new record. Our first listen has this careful pop approach, moving in slowly over piano lines and carefully plucked guitar strokes. There’s an almost otherworldly feel to the tune, especially with the slight tonal change that comes during the chorus…sort of reminds of Grandaddy in a sense. The self-titled debut album from Static Diary will be released on July 27th via
