False Negative is fortunate in that each band member brings to the table a wealth of writing and performance experience. Its this collective knowledge that allows the band to write fresh sounding, accessible compositions which appeal to both the casual listener, and the more discerning musical connoisseur, while at the same time satisfying the musical needs of each band member to explore unusual time signatures and exotic tonality.
The majority of our compositions come from improvisation and experimentation during practice sessions, an integral part of the False Negative experience. The four tracks presented here were recorded during practice sessions, so there are a couple of fumbles here and there and the recording quality isn't great, but more than adequate in presenting the False Negative sound.
