Engineering the Soul is an album by Something With Numbers, released in 2008. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Stay with Me Bright Eyes”, on 1 list with a best position of #48.
Engineering the Soul, the third album from Central Coast punk rockers Something with Numbers, came out on Below Par Records on 6 September 2008, and singer Jake Grigg explained the title plainly enough: music drives the soul, the band makes the music, so the band is doing the engineering. It's a cocky little manifesto, and the record backs it up with bright, hard-charging guitars and choruses built for shouting along.
"Stay with Me Bright Eyes" went to radio first, landing as a single in late June, climbing to number 52 on the ARIA chart and getting played on Channel V. The album followed Perfect Distraction and the 2006 breakthrough of "Apple of the Eye (Lay Me Down)", and it entered the ARIA Albums Chart at number 20. Early copies came with a bonus DVD of videos and a making-of featurette.
