Grails - Burden Of Hope

Grails is a post-rock band out of Portland, Oregon. This album is just beautiful. What sets this album apart from most post-rock albums is the tight song structure, and complete lack of pomp, which is all too prevalent in this genre. You're not going to hear 30 minutes of feedback disguised as "art" here. No sir, these guys are very deliberate and substantial in song structure, one of the shortest post-rock albums I've ever heard, this one clocks in at a little over 38 minutes.

If youre into post-rock, or anything experimental and/or dark, check this out, its brilliant.
