Revisted: Harvard [2009] The Inevitable, and I

sound: Indie Rock/Progressive

I rarely do this, i haven't even listened to this whole record and im gonna write about it anyways. I've heard about 5 tracks off this album in the last half an hour, and im going to say im surprisingly blow away. But let me tell you why, normally when people compare a band to Circa Survive or Minus the Bear they almost always turn out to be complete and utter shit.
So needless to say when i saw this record being compared to Juturna my initial response was "there's no fucking way". However i will say these guys share lot with that record, the same haunting feel of the guitars/faders/pedals use you got from Circa, should be expected here because this record is produced by Brian Mcternan.  Vocalist is more Deas Vail sounding to me, but still pretty great. Overall this record gives a very intimate feel, its sort of dreamlike and introspective in nature, but extremely enjoyable. Some jazzy aspects, the track French Girls has a glimmer of horns for flavoring and On with Disease sounds like it could have been on On Letting Go. Heavier  feeling tracks like Red Dress exist for those who question the prog. rock tag. Interesting record, definitely try these guys out.

*Do these guys a solid and buy some merch, small label bros for sure :)
