If âpast is prologueâ and the future is in bionics, SO IT GOES is now and tomorrow.

On September 26, SO IT GOES released its first full-length record â HISTORIONICS â on its independent label Now Here This Records. The tracks were produced and recorded at Flowers Studio in Minneapolis. Local creator Ed Ackersonâpointman of the Susstones electronic collectiveâworked the controls to capture the sonic energy unique to SO IT GOES.

Characterized by up-tempo rhythms, new wave bass grooves, alluring melodies, and provocative lyrics, HISTORIONICS is a complete record of eleven noticeably distinct tracks that bounce, flow, push and pull. Several of the songs, including âGet On With It,â âNo Guns,â âPopaganda,â and âRobots Are Deadâ have been getting excellent crowd response at the bandâs synergetic shows.

SO IT GOES was founded in late 2003 when brothers and singer-songwriters, Adam Payson and Travis Arthur, shared ideas during an impromptu jam session in Paysonâs basement. Since then, Payson has committed professional suicide by cutting loose from his downtown lawyer job, and Arthur likewise his city-planning ambitions, to focus on music pursuits in another type of fray.

Joined by drummer Micah Thor and bassist Brian Gruidl, SO IT GOES has quickly gone from opening act to one of hot new acts coming out of Minneapolis.

SO IT GOES is playing locally and plans to hit the road in support of HISTORIONICS in late 2006. The band has signed with Vitriol Independent Promotions (Muse, Tapes ân Tapes) for a national radio push later this fall.
