It's been awhile since I've upped any post-rock, which is a damn shame, because...well...post-rock kicks ass. This is a 5-piece band from England, which has lagged behind a little bit in development of their post-rock scene but seriously kicked some ass from the mid to late years of the most recent decade. This album being a prime example. The GY!BE comparisons will somewhat rightfully get thrown about here, but I hate using it because if you've never heard this album before, you should not go into it with that sort of comparative mindset. The sound may be similar to GY!BE with the strings, horns, and drums, but GY!BE had an eclectic, apocalyptic atmosphere that Yndi Halda abandons, bringing instead a fresh and more uplifting sound. Very good stuff and definitely worth a listen.
