?ME2.0?, the third studio album by the project Ordinary Brainwash, has been released today in Europe. In USA the album will be available on July, 10th (via MVD). As announced on Friday we reveal today another track from the album. You can listen to ?Stay Foolish? on Metal Mind Productions? official profile on Soundcloud in THIS  location.

Rafał Żak, the man behind the project, explain the title of the song:  ?The song was inspired by the speech given by Steve Jobs at the graduation from Stanford University in 2005 . ?Stay hungry, stay foolish...? - Jobs was undoubtedly a man who could give this kind of advice. This hunger for new experiences, knowledge, as well as dreams and efforts of the individuals are pushing the world forward. We are born different, original, and it seems to me that  system in which we live often wants to shape us into one and the same model, inone universal way. But I?ve noticed that more and more people, even some of my friends, do not want to impose these patterns and can be carried away by hunger for life trying to find true happiness, which is not universal. You have to know yourself and understand that "good enough" does not mean optimal, and and that this doesn't have to satisfy you. Often, however, we need to have a lot of courage and persistence to reach for more than just ?good enough???

Ordinary Brainwash is a post-prog mixture of beautiful melodies, original lyrics and startling compositions which should appeal to fans of such bands as Porcupine Tree, No-Man, Chroma Key or Gazpacho. Unlike the albums of the aforementioned bands, the album ?Me 2.0? was written and performed by one man only. The man behind this project is Rafal Zak, a 23-year-old student of the prestigious Warsaw School of Economics. He is a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist who expresses himself by translating his mind's creative flow into the music he composes. Ordinary Brainwash had its official debut during Piotr Kaczkowski's Minimax radio show in March 2008. The debut album entitled ?Disorder in My Head? was released in December 2009 via Lynx Music. Within less than a year from the release of his debut album, Ordinary Brainwash came back in October 2010with its successor - "Labeled Out Loud". Over the last few months, Ordinary Brainwash worked hard on a brand new concept album entitled "ME 2.0". The album is promoted by the track ?Outdated?. Rafał Żak comments: "'Outdated' is the opening song for the new album and, apart from its obvious role, which is to let the listener enter smoothly into the world of 'ME 2.0', it also gives an idea of what you can expect from the album as a whole. It will be melancholic and quiet, but sometimes also very hard and with an edge. It seems to me that 'Outdated' shows the diversity of emotions and, at the same time, the consistency of the music and lyrics on this album. During these 6 minutes, the song lets the listener immerse themselves in the atmosphere, which I hope will not leave them till the last notes of 'ME 2.0'.?
