Chicago Musician Rob Merz has been writing and recording for over 18 years and this has seen him involved with numerous Chicago Bands, now he's flying solo with his Static In Verona project, where he is responsible for everything.
Following on from the release of his debut album in 2009, Rob has drawn on influence from various quarters such as Shoegaze, Classical Music and Jazz.
This fusion of genres culminated in the follow up album - Everything You Knew Before You Knew Everything.
With a rousing orchestral opening to 16 tracks, the prologue is a melodic masterpiece which sets the benchmark for the album.
Bitter Branches begins with a powerful guitar intro, energetic percussion and smooth vocals.
Rosemary (Bury Me) has a heavyish bass line and heart felt lyrics.

[Song For K] is a laid back track with subtle instrumentals.
Something ... Anything is another energetic number with breathtaking vocals.
Blindfold kicks in with powerful beats and soothing vocals.

Trembling Timbre is a upbeat melody thanks to the beats and tempo.
