Unlikely is the second album by Brazilian stoner rock band Far from Alaska , released on 4 August 2017. It was recorded in the United States, produced by Sylvia Massy and financed via a crowdfunding campaign. It is their last album with bassist Edu Filgueira, who left the band in January 2018.
77-443: The band sees the album as a more unpretentious and free work than its predecessor, modeHuman , and believes it to be more representative of what they really are. They wanted to create songs that were easier to sing along in shows and that could be easily played with an acoustic guitar in a circle of friends, for example. In studio, the members, encouraged by Masy, experimented with a couple of different things, like playing synths with
154-407: A phase-out of incandescent light bulbs to reduce energy consumption. Historians Robert Friedel and Paul Israel list inventors of incandescent lamps prior to Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison of General Electric . They conclude that Edison's version was the first practical implementation, able to outstrip the others because of a combination of four factors: an effective incandescent material;
231-434: A vacuum higher than other implementations which was achieved through the use of a Sprengel pump ; a high resistance that made power distribution from a centralized source economically viable, and the development of the associated components required for a large-scale lighting system. Historian Thomas Hughes has attributed Edison's success to his development of an entire, integrated system of electric lighting. The lamp
308-428: A Canadian patent was filed by Henry Woodward and Mathew Evans for a lamp consisting of carbon rods mounted in a nitrogen-filled glass cylinder. They were unsuccessful at commercializing their lamp, and sold rights to their patent to Thomas Edison in 1879. (Edison needed ownership of the novel claim of lamps connected in a parallel circuit.) The government of Canada maintains that it is Woodward and Evans who invented
385-493: A Hungarian patent (No. 34541) for a tungsten filament lamp that lasted longer and gave brighter light than the carbon filament. Tungsten filament lamps were first marketed by the Hungarian company Tungsram in 1904. This type is often called Tungsram-bulbs in many European countries. Filling a bulb with an inert gas such as argon or nitrogen slows down the evaporation of the tungsten filament compared to operating it in
462-513: A carbon conductor, and platinum lead-in wires. This bulb lasted about 40 hours. Swan then turned his attention to producing a better carbon filament and the means of attaching its ends. He devised a method of treating cotton to produce 'parchmentised thread' in the early 1880s and obtained British Patent 4933 that same year. From this year he began installing light bulbs in homes and landmarks in England. His house, Underhill, Low Fell, Gateshead ,
539-472: A carbonized bamboo filament could last more than 1200 hours. In 1880, the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company steamer, Columbia , became the first application for Edison's incandescent electric lamps (it was also the first ship to use a dynamo ). Albon Man, a New York lawyer, started Electro-Dynamic Light Company in 1878 to exploit his patents and those of William Sawyer . Weeks later
616-466: A coiled platinum filament in a vacuum tube and passed an electric current through it. The design was based on the concept that the high melting point of platinum would allow it to operate at high temperatures and that the evacuated chamber would contain fewer gas molecules to react with the platinum, improving its longevity. Although a workable design, the cost of the platinum made it impractical for commercial use. In 1841, Frederick de Moleyns of England
693-504: A constant electric light at a public meeting in Dundee, Scotland . He stated that he could "read a book at a distance of one and a half feet". However he did not develop the electric light any further. In 1838, Belgian lithographer Marcellin Jobard invented an incandescent light bulb with a vacuum atmosphere using a carbon filament. In 1840, British scientist Warren De la Rue enclosed
770-478: A glass receiver, hermetically sealed, and filled with nitrogen, electrically arranged so that the current could be passed to the second carbon when the first had been consumed. Later he lived in the US, changed his name to Alexander de Lodyguine and applied for and obtained patents for incandescent lamps having chromium , iridium , rhodium , ruthenium , osmium , molybdenum and tungsten filaments. On 24 July 1874,
847-448: A lamp with inert gas instead of a vacuum resulted in twice the luminous efficacy and reduced bulb blackening. In 1917, Burnie Lee Benbow was granted a patent for the coiled coil filament , in which a coiled filament is then itself wrapped into a coil by use of a mandrel . In 1921, Junichi Miura created the first double-coil bulb using a coiled coil tungsten filament while working for Hakunetsusha (a predecessor of Toshiba ). At

#1732783914107924-406: A lower resistivity than carbon, the tantalum lamp filament was quite long and required multiple internal supports. The metal filament gradually shortened in use; the filaments were installed with large slack loops. Lamps used for several hundred hours became quite fragile. Metal filaments had the property of breaking and re-welding, though this would usually decrease resistance and shorten the life of
1001-486: A meeting of the Literary and Philosophical Society of Newcastle upon Tyne on 3 February 1879. These lamps used a carbon rod from an arc lamp rather than a slender filament. Thus they had low resistance and required very large conductors to supply the necessary current, so they were not commercially practical, although they did furnish a demonstration of the possibilities of incandescent lighting with relatively high vacuum,
1078-408: A nightclub, and that's it." Botarelli also said, comparing the songwriting of Unlikely with the previous album's, modeHuman , that "this time we were more worried with writing more songs, you know? Being able to play the song on the acoustic guitar in a luau and it still be cool? We didn't have that much in the first one, it was more about big riffs, screams and go for it! It's still all that, but
1155-698: A process of introducing red phosphorus as the so-called getter inside the bulb ), which allowed obtaining economic bulbs lasting 800 hours; his patent was acquired by Edison in 1898. In 1897, German physicist and chemist Walther Nernst developed the Nernst lamp , a form of incandescent lamp that used a ceramic globar and did not require enclosure in a vacuum or inert gas. Twice as efficient as carbon filament lamps, Nernst lamps were briefly popular until overtaken by lamps using metal filaments. US575002A patent on 01.Dec.1897 to Alexander Lodyguine (Lodygin, Russia) describes filament made of rare metals, amongst them
1232-423: A revenue that could justify the effort, but they keeo on making it, they keep on resisting and we are proud that the band was born in that context and we are proud of this Rio Grande do Norte lust being so strong among all members. "Rhino", which talks about the struggle to create the song itself, cites the verse "I will always love you", from the song of same name which was made a great hit by Whitney Houston . In
1309-402: A ruling 8 October 1883, that Edison's patents were based on the prior art of William Sawyer and were invalid. Litigation continued for a number of years. Eventually on 6 October 1889, a judge ruled that Edison's electric light improvement claim for "a filament of carbon of high resistance" was valid. The main difficulty with evacuating the lamps was moisture inside the bulb, which split when
1386-448: A series of elements that communicate with various types of public" and that it "shows the attention of the quintet in the assembling of every fragment of voice, arrangement or minimum percussive notch". Tony Aiex, editor of the website Tenho Mais Discos que Amigos!, said "Unlikely continues from the point where the band's debut stopped, with big guitar riffs and well-structured songs, and inserts new layers of elements which result in one of
1463-421: A source is defined as the ratio of its luminous efficacy to the maximum possible luminous efficacy, which is 683 lm/W. An ideal white light source could produce about 250 lumens per watt, corresponding to a luminous efficiency of 37%. For a given quantity of light, an incandescent light bulb consumes more power and emits more heat than most other types of electric light. In buildings where air conditioning
1540-406: A stimulating listening experience, which keeps the listener's attention all time". He pointed elements of Alanis Morissette , pop music, electronic music and Metallica 's "That Was Just Your Life" in "Elephant", "Pig", "Pizza" and "Slug", respectively. He concluded his analysis saying Unlikely "is a clue that the group is walking a well-defined path, with characteristic sounds, conquering much with
1617-442: A stoner rock band. This upset us, we don't sustain this leather jacket and sunglasses image. When we worked on the album, we wanted people to understand who we are". In another interview, she said she believed "we are more relaxed as a band and as people as well, everyone is more confident of what everyone does in the band and we could play with that a little more." Drummer Lauro Kirsch compares both albums as follows: "The first album

#17327839141071694-527: A successful version of this the first synthetic filament. The light bulb invented by Cruto lasted five hundred hours as opposed to the forty of Edison's original version. In 1882 Munich Electrical Exhibition in Bavaria, Germany Cruto's lamp was more efficient than the Edison's one and produced a better, white light. In 1893, Heinrich Göbel claimed he had designed the first incandescent light bulb in 1854, with
1771-480: A system of lighting . In 1761, Ebenezer Kinnersley demonstrated heating a wire to incandescence . However such wires tended to melt or oxidize very rapidly (burn) in the presence of air. Limelight became a popular form of stage lighting in the early 19th century, by heating a piece of calcium oxide to incandescence with an oxyhydrogen torch . In 1802, Humphry Davy used what he described as "a battery of immense size", consisting of 2,000 cells housed in
1848-476: A thin carbonized bamboo filament of high resistance, platinum lead-in wires in an all-glass envelope, and a high vacuum. Judges of four courts raised doubts about the alleged Göbel anticipation , but there was never a decision in a final hearing due to the expiration of Edison's patent. Research work published in 2007 concluded that the story of the Göbel lamps in the 1850s is fictitious. Joseph Swan (1828–1914)
1925-453: A vacuum. This allows for greater temperatures and therefore greater efficacy with less reduction in filament life. In 1906, William D. Coolidge developed a method of making "ductile tungsten" from sintered tungsten which could be made into filaments while working for General Electric Company . By 1911 General Electric had begun selling incandescent light bulbs with ductile tungsten wire. In 1913, Irving Langmuir found that filling

They require no external regulating equipment , have low manufacturing costs , and work equally well on either alternating current or direct current . As a result, the incandescent bulb became widely used in household and commercial lighting, for portable lighting such as table lamps, car headlamps , and flashlights , and for decorative and advertising lighting. Incandescent bulbs are much less efficient than other types of electric lighting. Less than 5% of

The filament is enclosed in a glass bulb that is either evacuated or filled with inert gas to protect the filament from oxidation . Electric current is supplied to the filament by terminals or wires embedded in the glass. A bulb socket provides mechanical support and electrical connections. Incandescent bulbs are manufactured in
2156-611: Is easier, with so many forums and communities in the internet, etc. Due to this and other reasons it was very important for us to choose Massy. Besides, obviously, the fact that she is absolutely incredible in what she does. Still in January, they traveled to the United States to record the album, more precisely to the city of Ashland in Oregon . They arrived in the country with all songs already complete, except for "Coruja", which

While heat from lights will reduce the need to run a building's heating system, the latter can usually produce the same amount of heat at lower cost than incandescent lights. The chart below lists the luminous efficacy and efficiency for several types of incandescent bulb. A longer chart in luminous efficacy compares

Incandescent bulbs typically have shorter lifetimes compared to other types of lighting; around 1,000 hours for home light bulbs versus typically 10,000 hours for compact fluorescents and 20,000–30,000 hours for lighting LEDs. Most incandescent bulbs can be replaced by fluorescent lamps , high-intensity discharge lamps , and light-emitting diode lamps (LED). Some governments have begun
2387-606: The Edison and Swan United Electric Company (later known as Ediswan, and ultimately incorporated into Thorn Lighting Ltd ). Edison was initially against this combination, but Edison was eventually forced to cooperate and the merger was made. Eventually, Edison acquired all of Swan's interest in the company. Swan sold his US patent rights to the Brush Electric Company in June 1882. The United States Patent Office gave

2464-796: The United States Electric Lighting Company was organized. This company did not make their first commercial installation of incandescent lamps until the fall of 1880, at the Mercantile Safe Deposit Company in New York City, about six months after the Edison incandescent lamps had been installed on the Columbia . Hiram S. Maxim was the chief engineer at the US Electric Lighting Co. After the great success in

The carbon arc itself was dim and violet in color, emitting most of its energy in the ultraviolet, but the positive electrode was heated to just below the melting point of carbon and glowed very brightly with incandescence very close to that of sunlight. Arc lamps burned up their carbon rods very rapidly, expelled dangerous carbon monoxide, and tended to produce outputs in

Lewis Latimer , employed at the time by Edison, developed an improved method of heat-treating carbon filaments which reduced breakage and allowed them to be molded into novel shapes, such as
2772-450: The album is "more relaxed and, consequently, creative" than modeHuman , which "sounded serious and stern". For G1's Mauro Ferreira, "basically, Unlikely sounds like a natural consequence of modeHuman . Although it can be characterized within the generic label of heavy rock, the album features nuances throughout its 12 songs. [...] The album circles with unity around the universe of electronic hard rock". He concluded by saying that "inside
2849-665: The album refers to the improbability of a rock band from Natal having achieved international success. As Botarelli explains: It has to do with our history. The fact that we play rock in Brazil, in the Northeast , in Natal. The fact that we don't like the same songs but still we manage to make it work when it's time to write songs. On the other hand, the album is everything that's in the crowdfunding campaign, which we are about to start and which will have its reasons to be 'unlikely'. As for
2926-402: The album's promotional shows, the hit is played as an intro to the show, followed by the track. All tracks are written by Emmily Barreto, Cris Botarelli, Rafael Brasil, Edu Filgueira and Lauro Kirsch Writing for Omelete , Jacídio Junior said that "the structure shown in all tracks – growing and punchy sonority, heavy guitars and synthetic touches – takes the album to a big result and delivers
3003-556: The album's release, the band performed in Brasília and was surprised to see the public was already familiar with the lyrics, proving able to sing along with the band. Vocalist Emmily Barreto even tattooed the day, so much impact the experience had on her. Unlikely was produced and recorded in approximately 20 days in Ashland, where the band rented a house from where they could reach The Foundation Soundstage studios by foot. The band
3080-554: The attention to details and, mainly, understanding how to work diverse moments inside one single song and project (something few groups know and can do). Unlikely is an album that puts the band's will and punch in the foreground and balances this viscerality with technical care and attention". In a non-critical article for Rolling Stone Brasil , Lucas Brêda considered that the band retained its heaviness in Unlikely "through incendiary riffs, filled drums and screaming vocals", but that

He praised the members' individual performances and concluded his analysis by saying that the band "got over the natural difficulties of a second album, took advantage from the experience it had in studio with a most competent producer and raised the level of the sonority it presented in the debut". It was elected the 12th best Brazilian album of 2017 by
3311-412: The cables going through electricity-conducting food. Like modeHuman , Unlikely was well received by the critics. Searching for a producer for their second album, the band came upon experienced Sylvia Massy ( Red Hot Chili Peppers , Johnny Cash , Tool , Foo Fighters , Björk , Prince and System of a Down ) through a common friend she had with the band's manager, Thiago Endrigo. When asked about

On 17 January 1882, Latimer received a patent for the "Process of Manufacturing Carbons", an improved method for the production of light bulb filaments, which was purchased by the United States Electric Light Company. Latimer patented other improvements such as a better way of attaching filaments to their wire supports. In Britain, the Edison and Swan companies merged into

We are from Natal, a city in which the entire population (including us) put on their coats when the temperature reaches 22 °C (72 °F). We can't stand the cold. Everybody knows that and the message is exactly this, about managing to stay. People from Natal are resilient when it comes to resisting by making art. It has to be, there's no other way. People from there make art purely for love, almost always without
3542-579: The cost of providing a given quantity of light by a factor of thirty, compared with the cost at introduction of Edison's lighting system. Consumption of incandescent light bulbs grew rapidly in the US. In 1885, an estimated 300,000 general lighting service lamps were sold, all with carbon filaments. When tungsten filaments were introduced, about 50 million lamp sockets existed in the US. In 1914, 88.5 million lamps were used, (only 15% with carbon filaments), and by 1945, annual sales of lamps were 795 million (more than 5 lamps per person per year). Less than 5% of

There is a precise dose of inventiveness and a heavy investment in production, responsible for bringing out the best of each instrument". Cleber Facchi, in his website Miojo Indie, said the album "carries in the guitars and screamed voices
3696-447: The energy they consume is converted into visible light; the rest is lost as heat. The luminous efficacy of a typical incandescent bulb for 120 V operation is 16 lumens per watt (lm/W), compared with 60 lm/W for a compact fluorescent bulb or 100 lm/W for typical white LED lamps . The heat produced by filaments is used in some applications, such as heat lamps in incubators , lava lamps , Edison effect bulbs, and

"Monkey" also received a video, in which all members (including Filgueira, who left the band prior to the video release in 2018) are standing beside each other in the snow with no appropriate clothing and depicted as if in a character selection-like screen. Meanwhile, Barreto, Botarelli and other artists like Carol Navarro ( Supercombo ) and Carol Caspary hang out in an arcade and chose
3850-615: The filament. General Electric bought the rights to use tantalum filaments and produced them in the US until 1913. From 1898 to around 1905, osmium was also used as a filament in lamps made by Carl Auer von Welsbach . The metal was so expensive that used lamps could be returned for partial credit. It could not be made for 110 V or 220 V so several lamps were wired in series for use on standard voltage circuits. These were primarily sold in Europe. On 13 December 1904, Hungarian Sándor Just and Croatian Franjo Hanaman were granted
3927-489: The help of Charles Stearn, an expert on vacuum pumps, in 1878, Swan developed a method of processing that avoided the early bulb blackening. This received a British Patent in 1880. On 18 December 1878, a lamp using a slender carbon rod was shown at a meeting of the Newcastle Chemical Society , and Swan gave a working demonstration at their meeting on 17 January 1879. It was also shown to 700 who attended

In 1930, Hungarian Imre Bródy filled lamps with krypton gas rather than argon, and designed a process to obtain krypton from air. Production of krypton filled lamps based on his invention started at Ajka in 1937, in a factory co-designed by Polányi and Hungarian-born physicist Egon Orowan . By 1964, improvements in efficiency and production of incandescent lamps had reduced

However, about 1893, Italian inventor Arturo Malignani [ it ] (1865–1939), who lacked these pumps, discovered that phosphorus vapours did the job of chemically binding the remaining amounts of water and oxygen. In 1896 he patented
4235-442: The lightbulb. On 4 March 1880, just five months after Edison's light bulb, Alessandro Cruto created his first incandescent lamp. Cruto produced a filament by deposition of graphite on thin platinum filaments, by heating it with an electric current in the presence of gaseous ethyl alcohol . Heating this platinum at high temperatures leaves behind thin filaments of platinum coated with pure graphite. By September 1881 he had achieved

Sometimes, it was difficult to follow". Moreover, Barreto believes she was able to test herself further as a singer in the album, which had more room for the vocals. Still in another occasion, Botarelli explained that "people started to see us as

Thomas Edison later saw one of these bulbs in a shop in Boston, and asked Farmer for advice on the electric light business. In 1872, Russian Alexander Lodygin invented an incandescent light bulb and obtained a Russian patent in 1874. He used as a burner two carbon rods of diminished section in

Over the first three-quarters of the 19th century, many experimenters worked with various combinations of platinum or iridium wires, carbon rods, and evacuated or semi-evacuated enclosures. Many of these devices were demonstrated and some were patented. In 1835, James Bowman Lindsay demonstrated

By 1860, he was able to demonstrate a working device but the lack of a good vacuum and an adequate supply of electricity resulted in a short lifetime for the bulb and an inefficient source of light. By the mid-1870s better pumps had become available, and Swan returned to his experiments. With

Edison filed his first patent application for "Improvement in Electric Lights" on 14 October 1878. After many experiments, first with carbon in the early 1880s and then with platinum and other metals, in the end Edison returned to a carbon filament. The first successful test

Edison continued to improve this design and by 4 November 1879, filed for a US patent for an electric lamp using "a carbon filament or strip coiled and connected ... to platina contact wires." Although the patent described several ways of creating the carbon filament including using "cotton and linen thread, wood splints, papers coiled in various ways," Edison and his team later discovered that
