The speed of sound in seawater

Ahhh many of you will say "what the fuck" well I will say. This band is constructive on there guitar work choosing wisely what notes they will play along with there well written lyrics. To me a song is all about lyrics and the notes played with the song. If you don't have that down then I wouldn't like the band. Unlike bands that are instrumental who chooses there guitar notes very wisely making an entertaining sound to my ears. The speed of sound does vocals and instruments. The band used to be 3 piece during there first EP "Blue version" in 2009. I heard of this band when there first EP just arrived in free digital mp3. The EP was never released in physical copy. The EP is damn jazzy with those quicky notes that almost makes me want to dance with the songs on the Blue version EP it is very good. The vocals are pretty high pitched but soothing to the ears with great rhythm. In 2010 the band released another EP entitled "Red version" They added another guitar and also added few effects to there songs which I think its decent of these guys the EP is slighty a bit poppy though great guitar work. The lyrics are quiet well chosen. Though my favorite song from the red version EP will be "Dinner and a Movie on a Post-Apocalyptic Earth: 12 Bottle Caps, Successfully Repopulating the Human Race: Priceless" the concept of the song is very genius and intelligent to write on. I wont go on what the song is about but if you read the lyrics you will see this band doesn't write random shit like most bands. Though they took a while to release this EP I can see why they did. They wanted a good masterpiece which actually did not failed. I also like the notes played in "The coldest room in the house" very twinkly like. So this one is for you twinkle twinkie heads. The band released a 3rd EP which I did got disappointed for the fact they already released 2 EP's there was no need of an third EP. Most fans expected a full length. There 3rd EP entitled "Underwater Tell Each Other Secrets" released in 2011 must say it is fucking gooooddd. Its like mixing old psychedelic rock with math rock indie and pop rock. I actually enjoyed the band's EP though the EP doesn't fail from being great it was just lame that it was a EP rather than a full length. The band also released "Yellow version" which is a compilation of blue version and red version. It is the first time ever for Blue version to be released on physical copy. The band decieded to take a short break for the winter. I am hoping to see a full length from this band. It is an incredible band from Sacramento. Don't sleep on this band twinkie heads. I will post there bandcamp page rather than a mediafire file. The band offers there music for free and if you really dig it you can buy a physical copy of there third EP. there might be a few available of yellow version.
