Red Sparowes

Californa based Post-Rock heroes Red Sparowes have at last dropped a new LP for us to gleam over, 4 years post their last LP 'Every Red Heart Shines toward the Sun'. 'The fear is excruciating, but therein lies an answer'. as well as being a long title is an amazing record, fans of them and their prior work will love this record, and fans of Post-Rock, Epic-core is you will, will also love this album. A beautifully melodic album, amazing build ups and drawn out calm intro's to crushing drops as all post rock lovers would expect and want to hear.

Musically this band has a lot of roots which stem out into other amazing bands, splits with Gregor Samsa, Grails, Battle of Mice, and ex members of Isis, Angel Hair and Neurosis, somewhat a superband you could say. and as you could imagine having experiance and influences from such amazing bands breeds quality, and Red Sparowes give us plenty of that in this album. Instrumental albums aren't for everybody, but the lack of vocals is made up for with the size of the songs, and the melody each song brings. Out of Neurot Recordings, and produced by Melvins/Big Biz favourite Toshi Kasai. The album is set for release 6th of April, Vinyl of this will be immense.
