History
Old World Lies
Their first release, the EP Old World Lies, was released in 2008[1] on Unfamiliar Records and received a positive press and blog response.[2] It was accompanied by a video for the song "Requiem for a Scene".[3] On October 20, 2010, Brasstronaut performed a version of Old World Lies on a balcony in London for the viral music show BalconyTV.[4]
Mount Chimaera
The band spent early 2009 in Banff, Alberta, recording their first full-length album as part of a Winter Music Creative Residency at the Banff Centre. After postponing the release date of September 23, they revamped and re-recorded some of the songs in private studios in Vancouver and finally released Mount Chimaera on March 2, 2010.[5]
The tracks "Old World Lies" and "Requiem for a Scene" were used in the soundtrack for the game WET.
