Album Notes & Community Reviews

The sophomore effort from the Portland-based instrumental collective significantly expands their brooding post-rock sound. Incorporating a far heavier, almost doomy guitar tone alongside prominent violin and piano, 'Redlight' explores a dark, avant-garde intersection between slow-burning post-rock and desolate ambient Americana.
