About This Act : |
| Last Dinosaurs banded together in high school in 2007 with a vision to bring musicality back to live music. "There was the whole lo-fi movement, which I very much like," says Sean. "But there were too many bands where the quirkiness of not being able to play instruments was cool." Sean wanted to write songs that accentuated each member's instrumental skills, and strove to create music that felt timeless, meaningful, and catchy as hell. In A Million Years is a direct result of this ambition. Taken at surface value, In A Million Years may play like a break up album, with some of the songs pointing directly to Sean`s relationships with family, friends and girlfriends. 'Honolulu' captures the grandeur of a new romance ('My love will forever grow / The story only just, it just began / And surely it should never ever end"), while 'Weekend' touches on the intensity of first loves ('With her voice she says / I'd die for you any day'). In A Million Years takes lifeʼs big questions about love, loss, and preservation, and pairs them with irresistibly danceable melodies. With this debut album, Last Dinosaurs draws the band leaps and bounds closer to their goal as musicians. "My hope for the album is for listeners to have a reaction, in whatever way," says Sean. "They might connect with what the band has expressed, or just enjoy a melody or beat... but if it makes a lasting impression on someone then I'm more than happy." In A Million Years is set for release via Dew Process / UMA on March 2nd 2012. |
