Forward Progress
Posted March 23, 2010
By IronJedi,
Centricity decided to hasten the end of Winter and skip Spring all together by releasing the more than temperate pop-rock of their latest acquisition: Me In Motion. Dropping in late March, the band’s self-titled debut is an intensely polished set that shamelessly crosses the rock line of pop-rock yet manages to maintain a radio-friendly vibe alá Audio Adrenaline, Relient K and Switchfoot.
Ernest Hemingway admonishes, “Never mistake motion for action.” Seth Mosley, Tim Wilson & Brian Dexter avoid any hint of “going through the motions.” This trio turns out Brit-inspired alterna-pop-rock that is memorably original, exceedingly catchy and lyrically sharp. Each song on the album has hit-potential. The band, under the skillful tutelage of Ian Eskelin, demonstrates an amazing maturity in pairing perceptive lyrics with engrossing rhythms.
The band should have no trouble garnering an increasingly larger audience. To give some idea of Me In Motion’s level of ability, these guys have been on three different tours over the last 12 months and played with headliners Newsboys, Pillar, and Red; and will join Sanctus Real on a Spring Tour! Comparisons to All Star United, The Afters, Our Heart’s Hero, Remedy Drive, and Ruth are definitely apt.
