5 stars At first you think all the things you like 3RDegree for (irreverence toward prog conventions like concept albums, science fiction themes, overblown pretentiousness) are out the window and the band has joined the fray in pro's well charted waters but then you realize they've bent things their way taking a genre and f*cking with it and making it their bitch. The cover and the interjection of commercials and lecture speak let you know you're on a ride but the songsmithing make it a smooth ride if you don't buy in entirely to the themes of the album which are many-digitizing of life itself, advancements in science that make ethics front and center, loss of privacy, and more really thought-provoking fodder for people who want that from their music-no worries. The band takes things up a notch from 2012's THE LONG DIVISION in recording quality, production, vocal arrangements and guitar heroucs-maybe due to the addition of guitarist Bryan Zeigler? Whatever the case, 3RDegree's ONES & ZEROS: vol. 1 is worthy of your attention and dollar...or Euros and Pounds should you see them on tour this year in Europe!
