bucketofinstrumentalbandseither. This four-piece from Sheffield, England sounds like a bizarre and somehow highly cohesive combination of Aphex Twin, Hella, and The Cinematic Orchestra, blending complex rhythms with glitchy programming and some very melodic elements. The heavier parts of this record are dramatically industrial while the lighter tracks sound straight off of a film score. It's an emotional sonic canvas worthy of an afternoon of daydreams.
