Often lumped into the category of "post rock", this instrumental band does indeed share several similarities with others of the genre like Tortoise, but they seem to have a far greater consistency to their music. Their frequent use of vibes in place of keyboards brings an "earthy" quality to their music (yes, I know that sounds stupid, but I can't think of a better way to describe it) and though it feels strictly composed, it flows from one passage to the next effortlessly without ever relying on individual solos. I never seem to tire of any of their albums.
