If These Trees Could Talk - Above the Earth, Below the Sky (2009)
Post-Rock / Post-Metal / Instrumental
Post-rockers with an earthy name and a metallic twist, If These Trees Could Talk borrow inspiration from Tool as much as from modern classical composers or Explosions in the Sky, and the results are riveting, to say the least.
“This is why Pitchfork sucks.”
Scrapple.tv presents a “trusted panel of elder music critics [spinning] the latest in alt-rock, hip-hop, and beyond!”
Translation: elderly ladies and gentlemen sitting in a diner and giving their opinions on music by Animal Collective and Fuck Buttons, among others. Affix your keyboard sneeze guards now to avoid any unfortunate sprays of soda from your nasal passage.
