| This Arizona duo (brothers Jared and Michael Bell) make big sprawling post-rock music that will remind people of Mogwai, The Album Leaf (whose Jimmy Lavelle lends a hand here) and Godspeed! You Black Emperor, while still including enough fresh elements to establish their own identity. The music on this album, the band's debut, doesn't always follow the normal post-rock song patterns (build, build, build, explode, play glockenspiel), instead they often send their songs in unpredictable directions through surprising elements like DJ Shadow-esque drum programming and vintage keyboards. - Losing Today |
