Saxon Shore - It Doesn't Matter

Because I know you guys are just quivering for more good music, I’ve got another great post rock album for you! In case you haven’t figured it out by now this is Some Guy. I’m much better at this than Preacher, he’s always so busy with stuff and now he’s all getting ready for Hellfest. He’s going to have so much fun while I get to sit around writing things for this here blog all day. Lucky you people!

Saxon Shore plays usually mellow yet still interesting post rock, kinda like Explosions in the Sky. Their recently released It Doesn’t Matter is quite a bit better than anything EitS ever put out though. Don’t get me wrong they are an awesome band but daaaaaamn this is great stuff! A few months ago I checked out The Exquisite Death of Saxon Shore and it was a decent album, but this new one blows that away like a feather next to a deflating hot air balloon. I’m sorry for that terrible analogy but I’m sure you get the idea. Anyways in case you missed it before this is the dreamy kind of post rock. It’s got the whole quiet noises and then POOF it suddenly gets amazing kind of thing going on. This is typical of bands in the genre of course so that’s not surprising, but the depth of dreaminess of It Doesn’t Matter is unmatched. The only thing that pissed me off here is how on the first song when the music begins to get interesting it suddenly becomes OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD HOLY FUCK. But that’s just about it on the bad things; I wouldn’t recommend listening to this album at 3 AM when people are sleeping.

You will be impressed with this album, I was. And if not well that’s because you have bad taste in music. Just kidding I love you, please continue reading this blog because by doing so you help me live in a fantasy world where my opinions matter.
