Oh, n o i, we hardly knew ya! Turns out the band, for whatever reasons, has called it a day and released Albino Rainbow as their last EP. Aside from losing a quality band in town, the worst part is that this is certainly their finest effort. Granted, it’s only three songs but it’s a great balance of post-rock and whatever you call bands like Jaga Jazzist – nu-jazz? electro-jazzy? Whatever you want to call it, it’s a pleasant listen and it’s a shame that there won’t be more of it.

If you haven’t heard This Is Heavy yet, go ahead and check that out to give yourself some context for the band. If you enjoyed that then listen to this compilation of b-sides, covers, outtakes and weirdness to round out your opinion of the band. I actually love hearing these kinds of lo-fi tinkerings and explorations; the true essence of people just having fun playing in a band.
