2008 release, the fourth album from the post-Rock instrumental Irish band, whose marriage of raw power and delicate beauty has drawn comparisons to the works of like-minded indie acts Explosions in the Sky and Mogwai. The band make use of projected, self-edited video footage along with impressive lighting arrangements to form what it calls, a "full audio visual show", with each song accompanied by its own video. 10 tracks. Revive.
If Anything Happens To The Cat is an indie post-rock band based in Ghent, Belgium. Combining lots of passion with a big DIY attitude and influenced by bands in all kinds of music genres, they create the music they feel at heart. The rule is simple: everything is possible. Since their first show in spring 2011, the band has played several shows in Belgium and the Netherlands and shared the stage with Maybeshewill, LITE, Immanu El, Our Ceasing Voice and Wild Dogs in Winter, amongst others.
Post-rock band God Is An Astronaut's third album on their own Revive Records. Don't you love it when your most anticipated release of the year lives up to your expectations. Undeniably my favorite band at the moment has pulled off a stellar release that shows a maturing in their sound. That band is God is an Astronaut. This albums is nine tracks of perfection and will most certainly be a contender for my Top 10 picks of year unless something completely miraculous happens. Their sound is undeniable, but on Far From Refuge, they have taking that sound to a new emotive level. The compositions are intricate and well thought out with moments that explode into quietness. Torsten, Neil and Lloyd are a force to be reckoned with as their brand of post-rock screams into your speakers. --Somewherecold.com
2006 import EP from this Irish duo (brothers Niels and Torsten), who are considered by many to be the most intense live act to emerge from Ireland in recent times. This release trademarks their intense build ups from serene ambience to searing intensity. Five tracks including 'Frozen Twilight'.
God is An Astronaut的配器虽然遵循英式摇滚的传统,但还是充满了古老冲动与激情。God is Astronaut这支柏林的乐队是2002年由两兄弟Niels 和Torsten还有他们的朋友Lloyd三人行而成的。他们的音乐清澈而具有质感,旋律优美却多愁善感,并且运用大量美妙的电子声效。
美国的俄亥俄州阿克伦是一个盛产后摇滚乐队的地方,像The Six Parts Seven,、Silencio,和 Mortimur等乐队皆出自于此,If These Trees Could Talk也不例外。在初期的小试牛刀之后,乐队09年的全新专辑《Above The Earth, Below The Sky》由他们自己独立发行,一经推出就得到了乐迷的一致好评。深受Mogwai、Red Sparowes和Explosions In The Sky等前辈影响的If These Trees Could Talk,其音乐还是扎根于传统后摇滚之上,并彻底舍弃了人声。如唱片名《Above The Earth, Below The Sky》所言,整张专辑描绘的亦是一幅癫狂的景象,像是在天地之间掀起的巨浪,奔腾不息,欲罢不能。激昂的节奏是专辑给人的第一印象,紧凑庄重,回荡迂回,有时却戛然而止,便像天际坍塌、万物重生一般。
For My Parents After years of exploring, searching ourselves, and composing pieces here and there, we found ourselves with more questions than answers. When we could not find these answers in the outside world, we were bound to turn inward. And so we went back to our roots. This is something we wanted to do while we still have the chance. What cannot be explained in words to parents, we hope can be captured by these songs. We hope that this album serves as a gift from child to parent. While everything else continues to change, this love remains a constant throughout time. ——Mono
