Good to Know 05:16
Voices sing the strangest tunes on a forbidden frequency phantom signals cutting through well beyond band X or V amplified to levels beyond all human comprehension why do I bother to mention it now? well, it's good to know. There's a particle nearly infinitely small really barely there at all an enigma, even for those who care about such things and all those miracles that overwhelm us so well, they add up to much less than that, OK? I'm just fine with the lie it isn't really much a bother to me so don't stress your pretty head with this stuff that I've said It's just good to know. It's good to know that we know nothing at all

Clumsy I don't know what I was thinking Maybe I wasn't thinking at all I'll own it I'll take the whole thing on my shoulders Space case, idiot, waste of carbon I try to speak my mind but I'm not quite sure that the thougths are mine I want another face and to live in another time I've got nothing to share Nothing original I'm not an intellectual I might as well be speaking dots and dashes I feel solipsistic and nebulous Perverted, I know ... I know I can't talk to anyone Somewhere between reason and absurdity I'm the guest of honor at a childish tea party for one

Open Mind 05:34
They cage the lion-hearted Indoctrinated, forecefed where dreams are synchronized by timekeeping devices Broadcast media, I thought I needed you but I tuned you out and it turned me on again Open Mind And now it all seems plausible There's nothing to be sorry for Oh no ... I don't owe them anything I can see that they're all miserable I spit upon their principles Oh no ... I don't owe them anything I found a flaw in their design a rusty bridge in boiling wine What do you do? How is it that you live in modern times? Repeat chorus 1 and 2

Shazaam. Shazaam! I wanna be a 70's Saturday morning Hero If Ultraman and Spectraman got into a fight, who would win? I don't know 'cause both of them shoot powerful laser beams from their hands. And which of these mega-beings would the pretty girls go for? I want to know.

L~o~v~e 04:59
I want to feel you close to me I want to feel your body, baby I need some love from you tonight I want to hold you constantly I want to give you what you need I need some love from you, alright? I'm going to kiss you and never let you go I'm going to touch you and make you lose control I'm going to take you and make you want some more I'm going to feel you and it's you that I adore L~o~v~e

Escape Swim 06:03
Frantic squiggles of neon pink light in a dead violet fist fight of midnight black light We've got to leave this joint before my eyes implode I know we don't get out often enough and I know I don't dance to show you my love and the sound track to this video is out of synch And I get it babe, you're still my svelt little Wonder Girl in a comic book filled with violent sex and guns ... and predictable antiheroes I think I'm waiting for the needle to skip. I suspect my psyche is ill equipped to appreciate anything less than World War VI Swim with me my jellyfish your tentacles afire (I get the joke the more they poke and prod me with satire) Stinging membrane, barely feeling ... numb with desire (Rotten memes and tacit themes transmitted on the wire) Locked away in cellophane, sitting past the expiration date Safe enough until exposed, absurd to all ... all but those who know. I get the joke

about

Sub-Intellect EP is the 2nd release from LowHero.DLL and is made up of 5 original tunes, 1 cover, and remixes from Testube (Jeff Danos), Digital Dirt Heads (Justin Lassen), and Wavemoods (Thomas Mims).

This release, while maintaining the solid electro-alt-pop foundation of the debut effort, is somewhat influenced by the Indie Rock genre. With Sub-Intellect, Chalker continues exploration of amoralist, nihilist, and existential themes (Good to Know, Dots and Dashes, Escape Swim) but also lightens the atmosphere with a couple more playful offerings (70s Saturday Morning Hero, L~o~v~e). Listeners should find this a compelling step toward the next creative phase for LowHero.DLL.

about

LowHero.DLL Atlanta, Georgia

LowHero.DLL is the electro-alt-pop solo project of Jonathan Chalker, based in Atlanta and distributed by Glim Records.

LowHero.DLL invokes New Wave and Post-Punk influences ranging from The Normal or Blondie to Big Black or PIL. There are doses of 90's styled indie-rock to add an organic twist to the electronic sound scheme, which can swing from dance friendly stompers to ambient interludes.
