5.0 out of 5 stars something to make your life better, 29 Mar 2006
By Knobblytyre (West Midlands, England) - See all my reviews
There aren't many albums by many bands that you can look back on and think unequivocally that they have made you see music in a new light. That made you feel naive, like you've really discovered something that previously you couldn't comprehend might exist. I can think of maybe two albums like that. 65DOS are one of those bands and The Fall of Math is one of those albums, it will make your life a better place. The energy, the power, the emotion, the awesome song writing, the creativity, the artistry, honestly im getting goose bumps trying to write this stuff down. 65 days are a collision of post-rock with drum and bass schizophrenia, with a whole heap of euphoria thrown in on top just to properly overload you. These guys are geniuses. I challenge you to listen to retreat retreat! or Aren't we all running? without feeling the urge to spread your arms wide, throw your head back and laugh manically at the sky because its the only thing you can think of doing to cope with the euphoria of it all. Whether you like fiercely energetic guitars, skittering drums, banging drum n bass beats or beautiful swathes upon swathes of keyboards you will be moved to new levels by this band. If you're worried about the instrumental nature of it all, don't be, once you've heard this you'll realise that music really shouldn't have vocals.

Buy this album, rejoice, weep. It might actually be the best thing in the world.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's A Blast, 8 Feb 2007
By D. Newton (Swindon, Wilts) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you like Mogwai and Explosions in the Sky but get bored by the quiet bits, then 65 Days of Static could be the band for you.

At just under 45 minutes long `The Fall of Math' crackles with restless energy. The band put a dizzying array of music into the mix - breakneck drumming, keyboards, strings, electronic effects and most prominently guitars, for this is a post-rock album that truly rocks. In fact, whisper it if you dare, in places it is a bit nu-metal (sorry).

Spoken word samples are used sparsely but with great effect: `we will not retreat - this band is unstoppable!' introduces `Retreat! Retreat!' the album's best track and truly thrilling it is too.

Occasionally, the mix of styles is less than successful, for example the burst of Squarepusher-style electronica in `Default This' jars somewhat and towards the end of the CD compositional acumen seems to take second place to sheer energy.

`The Fall of Math' reminds me of Explosions in the Sky's `Those Who Tell the Truth...' but without all of the Texan outfit's subtlety and songwriting craft. However, if you are in the mood for something with raw energy this CD is an uplifting and thrilling listen. Good stuff!

4.0 out of 5 stars Apocalypse Wow!, 7 Oct 2004
Aphex Twin and Mogwai meet down an alley in Sheffield. There's a scuffle, someone gets glassed. This is the result...

4.0 out of 5 stars 2 + 2 = 6 - 2 = Magic
I think someone earlier mentioned that this album sounds like Mogwai on steriods. I'll have that.

I'd recommend that you buy this album for "Retreat Retreat" alone.
