6.1 (album) explained
6.1 is the sixth studio album by Out of the Grey, released on August 15, 2001.[1] It was their first (and only) on Rocketown Records, after leaving Sparrow.
The duo saw the new album as an opportunity to redefine themselves as a band, and this hope is reflected in the album's name, 6.1. In an interview, the Dentés said "This time around, we were told to forget about the mentality of trying to write a certain way. It's been a long time since we've been able to let go and feel the freedom to do what we like and be what we want to be."[2]
Although the album gained favorable reviews, it would be their last as a band until 2015.
