Elegant Chaos
*** 1/2 stars

The Ottawa XPress Review
September 16, 2004

"Just how long can Robert Farrell remain Capital City's best kept secret? The obvious answer: probably not a whole lot longer, considering the fast and fiery tones of his fifth (ed.) effort, Elegant Chaos. Unlike records past, the hard driving, full steam ahead grind of Chaos is an all instrumental affair, which works to Farrellâs advantage. The wide open songs allow the guitarist to fully stretch out and explore, six string front and centre, without constraint. Though Andrew Lamarche (drums) and Stephen Clarke (bass) are dialed in from the word go, Farrell's warm, thick tone is the straw that stirs the sonic drink. Displaying a sharp touch all around, his muscular attack approaches larger than life fretwork of Texas stringbender Chris Duarte 'no small feat indeed' ..." (Steve Baylin)

Elegant Chaos will be available at all CD Warehouse locations in Ottawa, as well as online at http://www.mymusic.ca and http://www.mymusic.com (outside Canada).
