Year Of The Horse

Description

This quartet from North Carolina offers a dynamic and limitless blend of post-hardcore, shoegaze, and experimental guitar rock, which sounds like a labor of love rather than a rushed assembly. Drawing inspiration from bands like Fugazi and Blonde Redhead, they have shared the stage with Pile, Superchunk, Archers of Loaf, and many others. The North Carolina quartet has forged its identity the old-fashioned way: through loud rehearsals, instinctive collaboration, and performances that have turned curious local spectators into devoted fans. They have developed a sound rooted in tension and movement: the urgency of post-hardcore, the atmosphere of shoegaze, and the unpredictability of a guitar-centered sound. Produced by J. Robbins, the album captures the intensity of their live shows without dulling its rough edges.
