Dmnstrtn is an EP released by German post rock, progressive instrumental metal band Long Distance Calling. The four tracks presented offer a glimpse into the band's emotional evocative style of instrumentation with repeating sequences ultimately reaching crescendo for full impact. Embedded into the background of song structures often feature additional sound effects that augment a direct connection to the listener. Fire In The Mountain includes an Orson Welles narrative from the 1962 motion picture, "The Trial" as an effective substitute for lyrics. Likewise The Very Last Day concludes with a spliced excerpt from a more recent move, "A.I." Without vocalized lyrics, these instrumentals including brief spoken words complete the band's messages. Amsterdam, Venice, New York.... forever lost.
