Bangarang
Similar to Russian Circles or a more straight forward These Arms Are Snakes, basically heavy post-hardcore versus something kind of gross like metal: that, of course, depends on what you mean when you say "metal". The songs are brilliantly minimal when needed and the feeling of "tension" and "release" done so well by bands in this vein is present in spades on this release. An "under the radar" brilliant album. Where's a new one and a longer tour?
