I see there's a 6th LP imminent. Russian Circles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ». I missed Geneva but I got the vinyl of Empros and Memorium (clear bronze!).
Great band. Saw them live. They try hard to expand the boundaries of their genre and mostly succeed. Great drummer also! Interesting fact: their latest LPs were produced by Brandon Curtis of Secret Machines/Interpol fame.
I dig these guys but it's been awhile since I've listened to them. I have everything from Enter to Empros.
I only have "Geneva", though I do like what I have heard of their other albums. Saw them live once, great show. --Geoff
I've been into these guys since I first heard Station, sent to me back in my music reviewing days. Just realized that I have yet to hear Geneva (which, from this thread so far, sounds like I need to remedy), but I've liked everything since then. Just tossed on the new one was pleasantly surprised to see a thread for these guys. In quite a bit of a different vein, but I highly recommend the two Sumac records that Brian Cook has made with Aaron Turner (ex-Isis) and Nick Yacyshyn.
Never heard about this band but the band title got me curious. Their new album seems to be pretty well received - definitely gonna check it out.
My sister got me a few discs by them a while back, on my recommendation, but I still need to listen to them. I learned about them because they were compared to a few other bands that I like. I'm posting in hopes that this motivates me to actually dig those CDs out and LISTEN to them.
Saw them open for Mastodon earlier this year & liked their set. Finally picked up Guidance this weekend and love it! I will work my way back through their catalog now.
I have seen them live about 3 times and I really enjoy all they do. Live they are something to behold with the sheer power they put out. The albums are all great, IMHO and I will always buy anything they put out.
