Russian Circles | Station
http://www.bearlikemouse.net/ 2008/ 05/ russian-circles-station.html
I had been waiting for this album for a while. Whereas their post-rock brethren (who are more a collection of orphans rather than of lineage) spend time trying to create opuses drenched in walls of sound, operate under formulas that give little creative latitude, and function meditatively and patiently, Russian Circles is the white one in a field of black sheep. For being only a trio, Russian Circles are able to create songs that are simultaneously massive and articulate. The confluence of precise and creative drums, locomotive bass, and dextrous and powerful riffing works like a military- where efficiency and lethality are critical.
