Failed By Man And Machine - Tangled Thoughts Of Leaving (2013)

I was going to change to a more album-length release by these guys(o_O) when I realized this was only an 18 minute runtime, but man, it’s a great little chunk of angry and ethereal post-rock.

The piano and harmonic bass make it feel at first like you might be listening to a modern jazz record, like Gogo Penguin or Snarky Puppy (which… i apparently haven’t written about either of those. WTF?). But then you get some super angry buzzing guitars, cosmos-sized drums, and even some djent-style rhythms, and your reference point shifts with alacrity.

If it feels short, just listen to it three times like I did.
