IF THESE TREES COULD TALK

Akron, OH

 

treesIf Theses Trees Could Talk brings you to a place you didn't know existed, but now that you do, you discover that you need it. It's 100% unique and reeks of individuality. The blueprint went out the window, the rules forgotten. We'd like to consider them the soundtrack to those beautiful, freezing winter days that only come after a full night of mixed rain and snow. Tree branches and power lines completely swallowed in ice. Where the sky is so blue it looks fake and even though the sun covers your face with blazing light, you're frigid to the bone.

BEWARE OF SAFETY

Los Angeles,CA

bos
Beware of Safety is emotion personified through sound. This is the sound of living and breathing. It’s a culmination of experiences welling up into a force that demands release. This music is romantic, yet solemn; secretive, yet vulnerable. It makes you feel a very personal connection with the band and the music, like you wouldn't be able to explain what you're feeling any better. All without one word.

CASPIAN

Beverly, MA

caspianCaspian weaves precise, textured webs in which you become completely immersed and then profoundly affected. Hypnotized and forced to look inward. Their music offers a purpose for the thought. An answer to the questions you don’t know how to ask, that you didn't know you needed to ask. And all at once you know the answer is within you. The crawl back to rebirth has been resolved. The womb has been found.

GIFTS FROM ENOLA

Harrisonburg/Charlottesville, VA

giftsGifts from Enola’s sound captures the landscape of a snow capped monstrous massif peaking and rising into the clouds. It’s vast, desolate, and impossible to comprehend the enormity of it. Each song is a triumphant expedition to a jagged, colossal mountain peak. While at the top gazing out upon the seemingly endless mountain range from the one you just conquered, you have a great epiphany. You will never forget it. And, after a violent, cataclysmic avalanche back down, you begin to climb back up, so you might feel it again.

YOU.MAY.DIE.IN.THE.DESERT

SeattleWA

ymditd
You.May.Die.In.The.Desert use sudden and unexpected time changes, funky time signatures, and frighteningly sharp technical prowess to achieve a sound all it's own. They're not leaving you behind, but they are challenging you to keep up. This only accentuates the beauty that is captured in each song, giving the listener room to take the ride and dream along the entire trip, if they choose to. We feel this is Sunday morning inspiration, energetic and focused. Breaking lazy habits. And as your mind is being blown and you decide to read the liner notes, you'll realize that this is just a three piece. Then your head explodes.

GIANTS

Cedar Falls, IA / Chicago, IL / St. LouisMO


giantsMethodical, meticulous, precise. You can envision yourself seeing your life unfold through the eyes of a traveller as he journeys the country side years ago. This is epic stuff. Masterfully textured and layered. Leaving no notes unplayed and remaining focused throughout each track, this band has created a sound that sends and intoxicating layer of goose bumps over your body as the songs progress and ultimately climax in crashing crescendos. If everyone would start their morning off with a track by this band, war would not exist. =)

BENEATH OBLIVION

Cincinnati, OH

beneath oblivion

Beneath Oblivion is Cincinnati, Ohio’s finest in doom, despair and futility. Crawling forward, white-knuckled with down-tuned guitar riffs that leave you unnerved and anxious, bass lines that thud hard enough to leave you nauseous, and drums that thump one minute in a tribal, trance-inducing cavalcade and the next crashing down with the power of a mountain splitting in two. And though self-lamenting enough to satisfy anyones deepest wallowing, it challenges you to use your sorrow as a fuel to conquer and persevere.

EKSI EKSO (formerly On Fire & The Burning Paris)

Boston, MA

eksi ekso

At the edge of an impossibly calm reservoir, face down among broken glass and apocalyptic debris, you have no identification... no recollection of how you ended up here.  Barely mobile and completely taxed, you rise, fearing what is to be found and not found.  Did you initiate this catastrophe or are you a reluctant survivor left in place to rebuild what’s left? The Boston-based sextet are forged with a sense of triumph and hope when everything else has been eradicated, the album pendulates over the fine balance between creation and annihilation: at one second breathy, calm, and sparse; followed immediately by snaking melodies, unrelenting density and climactic cacophony.

LVNGS

Dayton, OH

Lvngs
This Dayton, OH based quartet crawls under your skin with exceptional songwriting, commanding, intense drumming, slithering, dueling guitars, and droning, throbbing basslines. There’s a hint of dirt mixed in all this; like layers of sludgy soil beneath the surface, thick and full of history. The Earth’s breathing, if you will, slowly inhaling to it’s warm and solid core.
