Between The Buried And Me frontman Tommy Rogers has been putting out solo albums under the name Thomas Giles since 2011, or 2004 if you want to count the Giles release on Victory Records. Thomas Giles' debut album Pulse was a pretty mathy, coherent album, while his 2014 followup Modern Noise didn't really make a whole lot of sense to me in all its disjointedness.
Now we've got Velcro Kid on our hands and the single "Strangers In A Paranoid Mind" has left me to believe that I have no idea what to expect. Will the whole thing be electronics-based industrial? Or is it just this track in particular? At the very least we know that Devin Townsend has a guest spot on the song "Gazer," so that's cool!.
“With Velcro Kid I wanted to step outside of my comfort zone and channel a part of me that I haven’t explored yet. Taking a more electronic stance was a very natural evolution for me at this moment. The outcome was something I never would have imagined and I’m very excited for the world to hear what’s been in my head for the last couple of years. I’m more than fortunate to have Navene work with me on this music and have some amazing collaborations on a few of the tracks. This is my next chapter, and I’m already looking forward to where my music will go in the future. As always, thanks for listening.” — Tommy Rogers
Sumerian Founder Ash Avildsen says: "Tommy is a very unique, creative mind in heavy music and I think his versatility as an artist is brilliant. I'm excited for Sumerian to help bring the world another side of his art that's a much different dimension than BTBAM."
