Engineers - Three Fact Fader (2009)

Engineers are back. Four years after the release of their landmark debut, the band return with their epic second album, Three Fact Fader.

The 13-track album was produced by the band along with Ken Thomas (Sigur Rós, M83, Maps) over a period of two years, with the final tracks being completed earlier this year. It comes packaged in stunning artwork by legendary music photographer Tom Sheehan.

Engineers are not like any other band. Onstage Simon Phipps is the singer, Dan Macbean is the guitarist, Mark Peters is the bassist and Sweeney is the drummer, but the real clue is in their name: they approach their music like engineers, carefully constructing wonderful walls of sound.

Following the rapturous reception that greeted their mini-album Folly in 2004 and debut Engineers the following year, it’s taken them a long time to build their epic second album, Three Fact Fader. After initial recording sessions, Engineers became unwitting victims of record company restructuring and the album was left in limbo, unfinished until the band reconvened earlier this year, largely motivated by public support.

^Trey botched the lyrics and laughed hysterically. The post song jam stretched out and entered new territory from the typical, post-Fee harmonic jam; ^^Trey says, "Well, we might as well play this one now.” Only the second time First Tube and Tube have been played back to back, the other time being 12/31/03; *with Train Song teases -- This is only the second time Sand has been played since 10/6/00 -- that's right, it was played only once after the hiatus; **Massive Glowstick war; ***New song, first time played; #New Mike original; ##Trey said they had a blast on the Northeast run and want to continue playing there tonight as long as possible, and he also talked for a while about playing new songs; ###This was only the second time in history that Tweezer closed the second set, the first time being 18 years ago on 11/14/91 in Chapel Hill, N.C.
