And like a family, everyone involved has a different history of where it began with the selective memories of too many late night tales of what it means, what’s important and where the ever changing road should eventually lead. So it is with My Luminaries. Pick a date in time and a different chapter will be unfolding. Tours, EPs, labels, players. Yet, throughout, ideas have got brighter, roots have sunk in a little deeper and what remains has become that little bit more precious. James Ewers with his band and an album that burns out of all of this but is completely different to where it first sparked. No surprise then, that it is titled, Order From The Chaos.Reading born James met Manchester bred drummer Sam Stopford at Kingston Uni in 2004. Both knew what they liked but both were trying to study music with the lofty appreciation of a philosopher doing algorisms for love. Fortunately James had his head cymbal crashed into enlightenment when he heard Sam’s drum solo kick the face off any appreciation for the stuffy classical establishment. They immediately hit it off with the shared belief that musical performance should come from the heart, not from a score. Together with twins Saul and Dylan Perryman (who James had met at Reading College of Art) they formed their band. They wanted a name to steady them like a ten ton anchor for the adventure yet they knew they would never be just another ‘The’ band. My Luminaries was chosen as their moniker and the zeitgeist mourned the loss of a definitive article.Releases were quick to follow, including an EP, a live album, and two singles; Jumping the Great White and The Outsider Steps Inside on Grönland Records, home to James and Sam’s favourite krautrockers Neu!. Jumping the Great White had Steve Lamacq paddling out across the airwaves with a promotional harpoon, making it record of the week. Elsewhere, The Outsider Steps Inside caused musical hunger pains, voted one of the songs of 2007 on scores of taste-maker websites.Charging ahead like Teflon bulls with justified belief and wide eyed naivety, the band crashed into an ill-fated development deal with V2 records. They could have made their first album then and there. If V2 had their way it would have sounded like the Kaiser Chiefs. V2 didn’t get their way as the label was bought out by Universal in eerie silence. Naturally, My Luminaries hurried away from the corporate wreckage tightly clutching the new song ideas that V2’s AR men had told them to scrap like resuscitated babies. It became the basis for their debut album. Even if you play the record backwards, it still sounds nothing like the Kaisers.The band spent 2008 writing what could very well have been their second or third album, along with new addition Simon Jones. Sessions were held at Cave, manager Rob Cass' small recording studio in Kensal Rd, West London. They played one show that year, in November at Reading's South St Arts Centre. Rather than being skewered on upturned noses, the local crowd treat them like returned kings with a handful of exotic beans. Even the near emotionless, autistic analysis of the local press were moved to write, "a band who’ve progressed from writing great tunes and performing them with verve into a mature perfectionist alt-rock outfit that let the songs do the talking." (BBC). The songs struck out like revived champions, buzzing with self awareness and renewed grit that only comes from the memory reflex of running into one too many knock out blows.In January 2009 the band went into Eastcote Studios to self produce and record their debut long player. Everything was now in place to make the record they’d dreamed of making. Bloody minded and heads ringing with tunes, nothing seemed too ambitious. String quartets were recorded. Horn sections were drafted in, fittingly made up of members of The Band of The Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons). The battle ground was set.The album was mixed by the revered and renowned Paul Stacey (Oasis, Black Crowes) who shared the band's ethos that the record should be made for the record's sake, and not for the sake of the radio or ipod. So they melted down a national grids worth of classic albums playlists deconstructing a life time of humming references until they chomped on the bit that makes hearts quiver and neck hair stand on end. The result is Order From The Chaos.It would only be right that it should be mastered in New York by the legendary Greg Calbi (Springsteen, Dylan etc) All the while, the proceedings were carefully being filmed by film-maker and friend of the band Pete Middleton. These rushes would later come together to form his 'making it yourself' documentary, aptly titled 'Ambition' (named after a song on the album).New champions of the band with bigger harpoons and better radars were soon drawn by the scent of something special. Radio 1’s Edith Bowman voted for the band to play at T in the Park Festival in Scotland. After the event, James and Sam recruited London based lifelong musicians Mark Ferguson (bass), and Michael Murray (Guitar), replacing the twins, and Leila MacFie (keyboards), replacing Simon Jones. The new line up began writing, rehearsing and recording immediately.Welcome To The Family is the first single to be released from the album. With a sound as intricate and broad as a continent wide weather forecast, it is a celebration of change and sets the band down the lost highway. As Ewers is quick to point out, "Its not about me or any of my family directly. The (newly radical left wing) protagonist might see his family as living in the dark ages, but he also doesn't realise he's got a lot to learn."And just as before, the music has taken on a cinematic life of its own with Pete Middlton’s video. Edited from a reel of junk shop 8mm it is glimpse of a different Era with long since forgotten family home movie from the 1950s. Mount Prospect. Illinois flickers on the water tower in the background. According to Business Week magazine the town is noted as the best place in the country to raise children. My Luminaries want to get the footage back to the family. Wherever they may be.They set out toward new, unknown frontiers bound as a unit. Yet we know they will be out there. Just like a band with a story to tell.Like dynamite, My Luminaries have mined deep for a sound and become explosive. And now the dust has settled, what we once couldn't see is just down a new road. 专辑曲目： 01 - Order From The Chaos（推荐）02 - Welcome To The Family 03 - Parasol https://www.8box.com/feed/000000_s_672580_/mini.swf04 - Ambition 05 - A Little Declaration 06 - Homewrecker https://www.8box.com/feed/000000_s_672584_/mini.swf07 - Clementine 08 - The Sound Of Music https://www.8box.com/feed/000000_s_677219_1/mini.swf09 - Heads Will Roll 10 - The Firemen 11 - Won
