After discovering this band a couple months back i was instantly hooked. While the musical techniques are not necessarily something completely original to the mathrock or progressive genre, i still feel their delivery is 100% heartfelt, catchy, and completely fascinating. This record is far more electronic, phazers, pedals, so on and so forth then i was expecting. And while half the time on first listen it seemed as though they were trying to emulate the excellence of their previous album Flashlights (which fucking rules by the way and is also on this site) there's gems like the strangely exciting almost progrock of New Bones. I'd say give it a listen though if you like listening to drummers or you enjoyed We Are Scientists latest press Brain Thrust Mastery.
sounds like: the Plastic Constellations, Blood Red Shoes, Fugazi, For the Mathematics
Boom!
