Album Notes & Community Reviews

Functioning as a loose collective featuring members of the Chicago post-rock underground, the ensemble delivered a deeply cinematic and largely instrumental release. 'Two Brothers' blends traditional chamber music strings with desolate, Americana-tinged guitar work to craft a profoundly melancholic, slow-moving atmosphere.
