- Themata is written in the key of B Mixolydian. According to the Theorytab database, it is the 6th most popular key among Mixolydian keys and the 38th most popular among all keys. The B Mixolydian scale is similar to the B Major scale except that its 7th note (A) is a half step lower. Mixolydian chord progressions are heavily featured in many.
- While I love Themata and Sound Awake equally, it is undeniable that “New Day” stands head and shoulders above all else in the band’s formidable catalogue. If there is one idiom that best encapsulates “New Day”, and perhaps Karnivool more broadly, it is that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

For someone like me, whose idea of a spa treatment is a great rock concert, last Thursday's Karnivool show at the Chance was the Holy Grail of spa treatments.
All the way from Australia, the members of the progressive rock band Karnivool have been together since 1997. Lead singer Ian Kenny, bassist Jon Stockman, guitarist Andrew 'Drew' Goddard, drummer Steve Judd and guitarist Mark Hosking combine their eclectic talents to develop a sound all Karnivool's own.
'Themata,' their 2005 debut album, was instantly a chart-topping hit in Australia. Not only did the public react and reinforce, but so did critics. Four years later, in February 2010, the guys released their sophomore album, 'Sound Awake,' filled with an entirely new evolution of rock. Rave reviews from critics in Australia and the States alike. including Rolling Stone and Guitar Edge, gladly welcomed this album with open arms.
For Thursday night's show, first on the bill was the band Bulletproof Messenger, followed by Newburgh's own Junket, who include Karnivool as one of their biggest influences and set the stage perfectly. Their wide range of catchy rock songs brought the audience right up to the state from the second they started playing.
Florida's Tides of Man were next and are the opening act traveling with Karnivool throughout their current North American tour. Reminding me slightly of Karnivool, in the atypical performance aspect, they fit the spot they held flawlessly. The combination of strange melodies and interesting vocals made this an opening band not to skip.
A few songs later, the stage lights dimmed and the real show began.
From Kenny's intoxicating voice and captivating stage presence to Stockman's encompassing energy and Judd's uncanny ability to keep the heartbeat for the entire machine going strong, the moment they took the stage, I knew this show was going to be something great.
Opening with the song 'Simple Boy,' Karnivool didn’t waste any time getting the crowd moving. Lyrics like 'I'm high above the world/Why should I feel pain, or feel alone?' and ' I will fight until there is nothing left/Cross the world together from this sinking ship/Or drown alone/Off the coast' put the audience, myself included, in awe.
Karnivool's remarkable aesthetics and knack to play it up left listeners and attendees feeling like they were in some sort of spacey, mesmerizing dream. Just like front man Kenny, the music had a hold on almost everyone in attendance. Witnessing such an influential music powerhouse reminded me that the brilliant power of music is only as good as the band performing it.
The show continued on with other with other fan favorites, including 'New Day,' 'Set Fire to the Hive,' and 'Change.' Also thrown into the set list were some songs from 'Themata.' For a slightly smaller crowd than one would expect for such a killer show, the energy and singing radiating out from it was undeniably contagious.
