ANOTHER NEIGHBOR DISAPPEARED
An American four-piece instrumental post rock band from Portland OR.
The band is known for its dense combinations of different melodies and extended track lengths. Its distinctive sound draws from post rock, math rock, and other heavier influences.
When performing live, the band is noted for being able to replicate and even expand upon their recorded material through use of sampling and extensive array of effect pedals and loop pedals to build layers of sound and is known for their atmospheric and entirely instrumental style.
Musical style and influences:
The band's sound has developed towards a more indie/experimental sound, with increased use of effects and cleaner guitars. Comparisons with Russian circles and God Is an Astronaut are common, however the band cite heavier acts such as And So I Watch You from Afar, Body Hound and Pelican as recent influences. Though they employ the standard soft/loud dynamic common of most post-rock bands, the band treat the term lightly, preferring the use of tightly structured songs and melodies.
