Some happy post-rock pedal board looping virtuoso bubble times for your Thursday morning, fuzzy friends:

This kinda blows my mind.

Edit: Does the Vimeo embed not work? The clips on youTube aren't nearly as good....

I will never forgive myself for missing them on May 7th. I only learned that they were here after the fact. :picard:

Hearing electric guitars in this style of music makes me so stinkin' happy.

Anyone have the new album yet? It's up on Bandcamp.

Also, Thee Requisite Video of them kicking serious amounts of ass in a live setting:

The last 45 seconds are just Kristian kneeling on the floor, manually triggering all the loops he created over the course of the song. B.A.D.A.S.S.

Also had not ever heard of them until now.

I liked that 'Indian Winter' performance (save for the talent bopping along in the background :facepalm: ). A lot of 'live looping' music suffers from the interminable-layer-build-up thing that these guys seem to be trying to avoid. There were verses and choruses and a real, honest-to-goodness breakdown. Cool. Will definitely check out some more of their stuff...
