Che Arthur is not what you might think. His debut full-length, All Of Your Tomorrows Were Decided Today (AOYTWDT), smolders with the sound of a fully-realized rock band, yet Arthur plays all of the instruments save for the drums. He chooses to perform accompanied only by his acoustic guitar, yet Che's live show still resonates with the same intensity as the album. Some might think this all seems a bit contradictory. Truth be told, Che Arthur is just hard to pin down. In addition to his solo work, Che has been touring and recording as a member of the Chicago quartet Atombombpocketknife since early 2000. Arthur has also spent a large portion of the past several years as a touring sound engineer with such bands as Jets To Brazil, The Promise Ring, Cursive, Thursday and The Black Heart Procession.
Product Description
AOYTWDT and its companion piece, the forthcoming Earthed EP (Spring 2004), were recorded at Chicago's Semaphore Recording during the spring of 2003. The recordings were produced and mixed by Arthur along with engineer Jeremy Lemos (US Maple, Sterling, ABPK). The turbulent, guitar-soaked canvas that is the album's jagged signature is complemented by lyrical themes of frustration, loneliness, failed relationships and the search for lost hope. The ten songs were written during an intense 18-month period of transition and uncertainty and reflect those uncomfortable times.
