I need to get that album - I love that song & video. Plus, as I've already ranted in another thread (well mentioned, anyhow), that album was recording in Pawtucket, RI, just a few short minutes from where I live. Let's hear it for geographic proximity!

Oh wow! From everything about those guys I'd read in other forums, I was left with the impression that they were another pseudo-prog-rock "I can play more notes faster than you and in different time signatures" jerk-off band. More fool me.

That song was amazingly accessible. :omg:

I may just have to check 'em out. Thanks for the tip!!! :thumb:

Sounds cool... Like a cracked out Animal Collective meets Liars. With the vox run through a KORG Kaoss...

Atlas is unbelievable
Ddiamondd, Tonto, Leyendecker, Race-Out, and Prismism are good
Snare Hangar and Race-In are allright
Bad Trails and Rainbow suck
