Revolution in Motion is the ninth studio album by the Philadelphia-based jam band The Disco Biscuits. It was released on March 29, 2024 on LP, CD, and all major streaming services.^[1] The album is a rock opera comprised of fourteen linked songs that tell the story of an attack on Earth by the Polyfuzians, a race of intergalactic explorers. The album was produced by the electronic music artist Derek Van Scoten.

Background

Revolution in Motion was originally conceived of by long-time Disco Biscuits associate Joey Friedman during the band's two-night stand at Northlands, an outdoor venue in Swanzey, NH. Following the shows, Friedman pitched Disco Biscuits guitarist and chief songwriter Jon "The Barber" Gutwillig the idea of a rock opera in which the band itself would appear as characters. Songwriting commenced shortly thereafter, with Gutwillig and Friedman completing their first demos in March of 2022.^[2]

Story

Revolution in Motion opens with a crew of Polyfuzians explorers traveling through the galaxy on a spacecraft named the JP-8000. The captain of this vessel, the wayward son of Polyfuzia's Queen, has been tasked with the mission of finding, collecting, and retrieving alien life forms.

Friedman, Gutwillig, and Van Scoten joined Max Dawson for a five-part interview about the album's creation on Touchdowns All Day, the Disco Biscuits' official podcast.^[4]
