This band got better and better over their first few albums, but their debut is still pretty solid. I remember listening to it a lot in college and my girlfriend saying it was the most depressing music in the world. She's probably right, it's a really harrowing listen. And to think it's all about the death of Efrim's pet dog...
ReplyDeleteWanda is such a solid song, it's a shame more post-rock isn't like this. Most post-rock bands are born as clones from other, more well-known acts, except the cloning process isn't very refined yet, so we're stuck with horribly deformed post-rock babies with three mouths and five eyes or missing limbs. What a half-assed genre.
