M I D D L E S T A T E S




New EP from one of my all time favourite bands. These dudes can do no wrong and this EP is no exception. Four tracks in twenty-eight minutes and it definitely leaves you wanting more. Middle States is some of their most experimental stuff, and in that regard it reminds of Low Level Owl more than anything else. Epic fucking shit. Now I want another full-length.

Maserati - Pyramid Of The Sun




Cinematic and synth-heavy instrumental rock. Pyramid Of The Sun is a melodic, driving and dark masterpiece from one of the best post-rock bands around. Zombi's Steve Moore contributes to two tracks and they both fucking slay. This whole album is dedicated to their drummer Jerry Fuchs who tragically passed away while they were making it. Whenever I listen to this band it is hard to not imagine Kurt Russell running around a scorched NYC looking for the President whose plane has just crashed, but maybe thats just me. The closing track on here, "Bye M'Friend, Goodbye", is one of the bands absolute best. Get into it.
