Key: G
Meter: 4/4
Tempo: 170 BPM (beats per minute)
Description: Fast chamber music meets garage rock

A PRIORI/A POSTERIORI is a moveable feast of sounds and ideas for the new roaring 20s. The Granite Countertops emerge from 18 months of sheltering in place with their sixth album of 16 all-new original songs about survival, knowledge, experience, time, life, sickness, health, and annoying insects.

J Neo Marvin and Davis Jones file status reports on remote life, feel the blood run through their own bodies, marvel in horror at the continuing madness around them, and serenade a hideaway with a dynamic range of surprising musical styles.

Former Puncture writers Patty Stirling (co-writer of several other indie classics) and Peter Jones contributed to both the writing of the lyrics and the song performance for Aftermath Limerick.

FILMMAKERS: Key, Time, Tempo, Description added to each song for audiophiles, movie directors or whoever wants to use the music for an original film. We can remove vocals from soundtracks per deposits made on instrumental use per individual contract agreements.

Elastic minds
Scanning the shelves
Authors reveal
Sometimes they conceal

Expanding and growing
Punctuation flowing
Grammar bestowing
Insight is glowing

Do you know about A Priori?
Knowledge stored in libraries
Studies for test, examinees
Stretching the brain beyond belief
