These guys def have some shared DNA with acts like Modest Mouse and Death Cab (the latter more so imo) but they’re very much their own thing.

idk about death cab but surely these guys precede their good stuff heh



pre-pinback group 'three mile pilot' are also worth checking out - 'the chief assassin to the sinister' is top tier and you can see where a lot of pinbacks ideas came from

Honestly if we're talking ancestral DNA, I hear more Spiderland influence in this than anything else

thats interesting cos i hear zero spiderland in this. Sounds more like a folk inspired take on mathy indie rock to me.

Nice sales pitch row.
One of this bands songs is amazing but I can’t for the life of me remember what it’s called. Featured on a Russell Brand show of all things from what I can remember.

also, i usually stick to the originals over reissues with additional tracks - but god, byzantine and versailles are perfect.
