Album Of The Day: Multisensory Aesthetic Experience by Mae

Album Art of Mae's Multisensory Aesthetic Experience album - On a black background, what looks like maybe some galaxies and colored rocks suspended in space. In the top left, it more looks like the milky way, a constellation of many thousands of stars. But as it moves to the top left, it seems more like just a few stones, planets and stars of mostly orange or purple colors leaving the galaxy and moving out in a line on their own.

Mae was a popular mid-2000s band, but after 2007's Singularity record was less successful than expected, the band went independent and released a series of EPs. They came back on my radar with this album, released on this day in 2018, which is a collection of rock songs pretty similar in style to their first album. The band likes to experience with sounds and multimedia experiences, it seems, though I've not really experienced their shows or much more than just listening to their music. It would be fun to get a more immersive experience of their music somehow, someday. The album ends with a beautiful, six-minute instrumental rock exploration featuring violinist Tim Fain. Mae is not a band I listen to really often, but some friends really like their work and I do find I like it when I do listen.
