The Electric Soft Parade
The Electric Soft Parade are an English psychedelic pop band from Brighton, comprising brothers Alex and Thomas White, the creative core of the band, as well as a number of other musicians with whom they record and perform live, most recently including Andrew Mitchell (of Dundee-based group The Hazey Janes) and Damo Waters, as well as long-standing bass/keyboard player, Matthew Twaites. Career Alex and Thomas originally formed Fixed Ascent (later The Feltro Media) with schoolfriends Alistair Gavan and Russell Gleason in around 1997. Whilst ostensibly a formulaic indie outfit, there were flashes of the more complex symphonic arrangements and varied production values that would characterise later Electric Soft Parade releases, and over three self-released albums the band cultivated a (relatively) original sound, not unlike that of ''Holes in the Wall''. Following interest in their 1999 LP, ''The Wonderful World of the Feltro Media'', the band were offered a deal with DB Records ...

Indie Rock
Indie rock is a Music subgenre, subgenre of rock music that originated in the United States, United Kingdom and New Zealand from the 1970s to the 1980s. Originally used to describe independent record labels, the term became associated with the music they produced and was initially used interchangeably with alternative rock or "Pop rock, guitar pop rock". One of the primary scenes of the movement was Dunedin, where Dunedin sound, a cultural scene based around a convergence of noise pop and jangle became popular among the city's University of Otago, large student population. Independent labels such as Flying Nun Records, Flying Nun began to promote the scene across New Zealand, inspiring key college rock bands in the United States such as Pavement (band), Pavement, Pixies (band), Pixies and R.E.M. Other notable scenes grew in Madchester, Manchester and Hamburger Schule, Hamburg, with many others thriving thereafter. In the 1980s, the use of the term "independent music, indie" (or " ...

The American Adventure (album)
''The American Adventure'' is the second album by UK prog-pop duo The Electric Soft Parade, released in 2003 on BMG UK & Ireland. The album was seen as a departure from their previous effort ''Holes in the Wall'' (DB Records, 2002) and paved the way for their third full-length LP, ''No Need To Be Down-Hearted''. Critical reception ''The American Adventure'' received mixed reviews upon release. Jack Rabid of Allmusic noted a distinct change of sound from that of the band's debut album, ''Holes in the Wall'', but it was a change that he felt worked to good effect; "They abandon any semblance of their first LP's clockwork consistency for a bumpy ride of an LP that shifts gears from song to song, or mid-song abruptly but successfully throughout". He went on to draw comparisons with the baroque music of The Beach Boys and "'70s Pink Floyd comfortable numbness". Andrew McGregor writing for the BBC praised the uniqueness of The Electric Soft Parade sound, but found fault with the albu ...

No Need To Be Downhearted
''No Need to Be Downhearted'' is an album by The Electric Soft Parade, released in 2007. The first single was "If That's the Case, Then I Don't Know". The album was named after a lyric from The Fall's song "15 Ways" from their album ''Middle Class Revolt''. Production Unlike previous releases, the album was self-produced and recorded entirely digitally, using a demo version of ProTools, lending the album a hard, brittle sound. Compared to the relatively restrained arrangement and mix of earlier work, the album is richly layered - at times cluttered and busy - a result of the bands' trademark 'loose over-dubbing' (a technique whereby any given melody is partly or wholly improvised, then double-tracked approximately, often giving the track in question a slightly out-of-focus, seasick quality). The LP also features wide use of sampled Mellotron and MIDI MIDI (; Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a technical standard that describes a communications protocol, digita ...
