Russian Circles, Station

US, 2008

Amid the flurry of post-rock bands it's not easy to sound expressive or distinct. Boasting a similar metal flair to fellow Chicago residents Pelican, Russian Circles feel less monotonous by steering away from long sludge passages, while retaining the epic feel and building melodies until they overflow into riffs. Good stuff.
