When the World
Imagine deities have to attend school to learn how to build and control universes. The album explores what happens when the ego of an inexperienced deity collides with the needs of its creation.
Escher's Enigma returns with thunderous energy after a five-year hiatus. When the World is a full-fledged concept album right out of the 80s. True to form, the father/son duo of Russ and Brian Miller traverse a wide variety of musical influences in 45 minutes, from progressive rock to punk to acoustic pop to heavy metal. Their familial chemistry remains the glue that keeps the album from running away from itself... but just barely. Turn it up to 11, hold on to your hat, and strap in for a truly awesome adventure.

Praise for Previous Albums
"Pure Musical Mojo" "Pop Perfection"
Indie Artists Alliance
"These two are musical masterminds with more than enough zaniness,
creativity and eccentricity to go around."
"At the end of the day, Russ and Brian are a world-class singer/songwriter
father/son duo ... clearly worthy of worldwide recognition.
Indie Music Digest
“They represent all that is good in music.
Rock solid musicianship, entertaining songs and music that covers all the bases.”
"It's not getting any easier to find great pop songwriting these days, ...
but I have yet to hear anything from them that isn't exactly that."
All What's Rock
"A distinct family synchronicity and musicality that can
be found with no other band of this day and age."
Vents Magazine
"This is one of the most original sounding bands I've heard in quite some time.
This outlier style of music is not only mastered by the Miller father/son dream team,
it also deserves a much wider and attentive audience, to say the least."
Music Emmssions
"...an uncharacteristic fusion of hard melodic guitars and unique songwriting techniques
with a limber rhythm section that keeps the music loose yet powerful."
Gig Band Music
"The extraordinary quality of 'For a Moment' ...
if you can't sit back and enjoy this, you're missing what great modern pop is all about."
Music Existence
"This album could best be described as a contemporary, up to date version of classic
Simon and Garfunkel...The basswork and vocals are fantastic."
Band Blurb
"Press the play button and enjoy."
Skope Entertainment
"The playing, writing and delivery of these songs is brimming with vim and vigor."
