Personnel: Lewis Hiigel, Vocals Cooper Stimson, Piano ************** Silently, pensively, Lewis sits in front of the blank screen tasked with the insurmountable challenge of summarizing the essence of the piano based alt-rock duo, CS and Lewis. However, with a gun pointed at his head and reverse wolverines gnawing on his legs, he is pressured to persevere and attempt. In summation, CS and Lewis is an alternative rock band which takes much influences from artists such as Ben Folds, Supertramp, Muse, John Lennon and Johann Sebastian Bach. It is their aim, through their debut album and albums to come, to infuse contemporary rock music with advanced classical composition techniques, while simultaneously remaining catchier than Happy Birthday. The ever-present piano, being the lead instrument and identifying feature of CS and Lewis' sound, is the defining point of what sets them apart from most music. The singing embraces a baritone range sprinkled with soprano high points and bass lows, and melds admirably with the piano lead. It is on this note that Lewis stops writing and succumbs to being devoured by the rabid reverse wolverines before being SHOT! At this point Cooper goes through Lewis' pockets and looks for loose change. ************** Cooper says: This CD package comes in a lovely slimline jewelcase, perfect for slipping into a bookcase to hide from kleptomaniac music-lovers, with a premium, two-sided cover printed in vibrant FULL COLOR, with professional(ish) photography and brilliantly typed tracklisting and credits information inside for your viewing pleasure.
