Description

Often times an artist's inner voice is subsumed by the roaring engine of his band, preventing them from exploring interesting new directions with their music due to the theme and scope of the band they're in. Occasionally we see successful bands travel off the beaten path but more often than not, that artist's voice is never given an audience.
For Ken Andrews, the time to hear his "new direction" came at the collapse of Failure, the commercially unsuccessful but underground champion band that epitomized "word of mouth" music. Finding himself with a lot of time to do what he wanted on his own, he opted to put together a synth pop solo project called "ON" and put out a new sound of his own devising. He called in notable worthies like Matt Mahaffey of Self to assist on a few tracks, and put together an album radically different from his days in Failure.
"Shifting Skin" is a fantastic experiment in modern synth rock, combining Ken's distinctive vocals with catchy instrumental riffs and the classic space rock elements that made Failure so unique. The album is an easy listen, evoking low-level emotions throughout and making itself comforting and lulling--a far cry from the angst-ridden drone of Failure. The title track is a catchy groove with cross-over potential, while "C'mon Collapse" is an upbeat melody unlike anything we've heard from Ken since the Replicants days. The album was born to be a commercial success, but unfortunately no one seemed to catch on due to poor media management, and it sank into obscurity. (Jesse Hart)
