An authentic "new wave" band from the early 1980s, Hormoans offered cutting edge, original material to Central Pa. at a time when most acts where strictly cover. In December 1981, the band recorded a few dozen tracks of their original compositions along with original "translations" of some standard material. Unfortunately, the band broke up soon thereafter and these recordings remained "lost" for over a quarter century. Finally in 2008, these recordings were remastered to form the album Not One of You, co-produced by Jim Hammond & Ric Albano. |

Imaginary Lines II was an effort to follow up the richly-produced Imaginary Lines I with a simpler counterpart. At it's inception, the album was to be the second in a trilogy of Imaginary Lines single albums but production delays that pushed it's release to late 2007 and caused a change in strategy in the overall project. When released in December 2007, the album excluded some unfinished songs and contained no guitars on any track. All the songs were later enhanced and included on Imaginary Lines 33 in 2009. |

The first professional album produced by Ric Albano, Imaginary Lines I wwas an ambitious undertaking with complexly arranged songs and sonic enhancements. Featuring the "house band" from Saturation Acres (now relocated) Danville studio, the album contains some phenomenal performances to complement the rich production. Recorded and released in 2005, it contains choice cuts of songs written by Ric Albano, dating back as far as 1997 and was mixed and mastered by Albano at The Subterranean. All the songs were ultimately re-released in original form on Imaginary Lines 33. |
