And So I Watch You From Afar
Debut album from Belfast based four-piece. Instrumental post-rock that will appeal to fans of Red Sparowes, Explosions in the Sky, 65daysofstatic and Isis. Momentous, murderous, tumultuous – not idle superlatives when used to describe And So I Watch You From Afar’s debut offering. Recorded in Belfast in a disused record distribution warehouse 'ASIWYFA' craft powerful and uncompromising soundscapes that slay and sooth in equal measure.
Monstrously heavy, these eleven tracks encapsulate the sound of a band at maximum power with guitars set to ‘kill’. Press : “The sound of someone crashing an oil tanker through Sigur Ros' ice float" - NME / “One of the most hotly tipped British bands around at the moment.”
BIG CHEESE / Rocksound ones to watch 2009 / “Sounds like the end of the world!!” KERRANG! "These lads dont so much so much tread the well worn path of instrumental rock as slam-dance all over it in size-20 DMs. Its a thrilling spectacle" ALTERNATIVE ULSTER / Reviews due in NME, Kerrang, Rocksound, Plan b, Organ, Vice, Big cheese, Paylouder, Alternative Ulster, Artrocker.
