In this day and age, when every brainfart is celebrated as a revelation by the producer, Polished To Roughness have the gall to publish a song about the scientific mindset, self-reflection and truthfulness, paired with a call to action. So very yesterday! Imbedded in a repetitive groove somewhere between rock and handmade electronics, this stark contrast to their previous releases forebodes more good to come whilst inviting you to enjoying what is already there… Release!
Also we would like to thank Margriet Baltzer for her cover art for Science!
Ausgerechnet heutzutage, wo jeder Hirnfurz vom Produzenten als Offenbarung gefeiert wird, nehmen Polished To Roughness es sich heraus, einen Song zu veröffentlichen, in dem es um die wissenschaftliche Denkweise, Selbstreflexion und Aufrichtigkeit geht, gepaart mit einem Aufruf zum Handeln. Sowas von gestern! Eingebettet in einen sich wiederholenden Groove irgendwo zwischen Rock und handgemachter Elektronischer Musik lässt dieser Kontrast zu den bisherigen Veröffentlichungen nur Gutes ahnen, was das Spektrum des noch kommenden Materials betrifft. Gleichzeitig ist es eine Einladung, einfach das zu genießen, was bis jetzt schon zu hören ist… Release!
Außerdem danken wir Margriet Baltzer für das Cover von Science!

This is Dreaming, Hope of Glory
You coulda lived in the now, yet you cry for tomorrow, when you won’t be around to really feel the sorrow and you’re all upset, you can’t take it no more crying out to god – tell me, what are you waiting for?
So pick it up right here, get it started right now, don’t stop, keep it moving, get yourself in gear, to be an ancestor worth praying for, you gotta do it right now – not someday
This is Uncertainty, Curiosity
And the Mirror in the Hall
and the Mirror in the Hall
Talking – No Talking
And a Message from Home
leading back to the Track
Well you’re all upset, you can’t take it no more, crying out to god – tell me, what are you waiting for? So pick it up right here, get it started right now, and don’t stop, keep it moving, get yourself in gear, it’s right now that you do it, not someday, maybe one day, you’ll get up and pick up and stand up for your right to be an ancestor worth praying for
Dreaming – Praying
Talking – No Talking
And the Mirror in the Hall,
and the Mirror in the Hall
Dreaming – Succeeding
and the Mirror in the Hall,
and the Mirror in the Hall
Release…
