Helsingfors - Schematics EP

Some Guy here with some more delicious new music for you. I was quite surprised to see an email from a person in a band. I was even more surprised when I realized it wasn’t asking to remove a download link but rather telling me to give this EP a listen.

Today we have Schematics, the debut EP from Helsingfors, an instrumental math / post rock band from the UK. This EP is released for free digitally on the internet, so you don’t have to feel bad about downloading it. And that’s a good thing, because it’s an enjoyable way to spend 22 minutes. It’s got that delicious mathy sound similar to bands like By the End of Tonight or Maybeshewill yet continues to be unique and not boring. If you’re turned off by the heaviness of other math / post rock bands you’ll probably enjoy this. It’s nowhere near as loud as many of the bands in this genre. As with most match rock it’s quite complex and always interesting. There’s never a dull moment on this EP. It’s like eating only one potato chip. You try to listen to it just once, but you crave more! But then you cry because they don’t have a full length out yet. Personally I can’t wait until they do release one. This is great stuff!

Maybeshewill - Sing the Word Hope In Four-Part Harmony

Some Guy is back with another review! To celebrate our spiffy new template and wonderful logo that I drew in MS Paint all by myself, I’ve got quite a present for you today! This is simply an amazing year for post rock and well, I’m honestly quite shocked at the quality of some of the releases. Here’s another one that just came out of nowhere!

Maybeshewill is a British band with 3 dudes and a pretty girl. Pretty girls make every band better, and this one is certainly no exception. Before this new album of theirs came out, all I had heard from these guys in their Japanese Spy Transcript EP, which was awesome. But this new album, Sing the Word Hope In Four-Part Harmony, is 100% pure omgsogood. Yes, I did just make that word up just for the occasion. Do you like it? Anyways, this is the heavier variety of post rock. It’s not the oh let’s see if anything interesting ever happens… *20 minutes later* WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE SONG IS OVER?! kind. Bands like this make Godspeed You! Black Emperor cry because they will never be this good. You hear that Godspeed? You will never be this good, stop trying. From the second this album starts to the moment it ends, it will leave you screaming NEED MOAR and frequently using all caps to describe how good it is. Enjoy!
