New CD purchase: Tarentel
My friend Stephen was badgering me about post-rock and instrumental bands… well, not badgering, but as recently I have been very worn out on “post-rock”, I felt badgered. Stephen rules BTW, bless his heart. I think it all started at SXSW… which was more fun than I thought it would be but underwhelming in the amount of good music and performances I was able to see and hear, but well save that rant for another post. Anyways we stayed up late after a looong day to see fellow post-rockers Caspian from Boston. We had played with them a few times and we generally regard them as being a very good band, very much the poster-children of independent instrumental post-rock. Good guys… good musicians, bless their hearts.
