With the long-playing album succumbing to today's single song downloadable world, Oliver Future's "Pax Futura, " due July 24, 2007, is refreshingly anachronistic. Filled with mini-suites and recurring themes, Oliver Future and acclaimed producer Adam Lasus have created an album in the biggest sense of the word.

Songs fade into each other like scenes from a film as frontman Noah Lit muses on topics such as the apocalypse, politics, failed romance and natural disaster. Oliver Future has rapidly made a name for itself in it's adopted hometown of L.A, winning over locals as well as influential radio DJ and music supervisor Chris Douridas, who has had them play live on his KCRW show, "Higher Ground."
