When I say Caspian have nailed Post Rock for the impatient, I really do mean it as a compliment. I don't always - actually, scratch that - I pretty much never have the time to sink into the standard post-rockian affair, those meandering monoliths that jerk tears and shatter planets. I adore them, but sometimes I need my shot of euphoric beauty in a more immediate package to fit around, well, life. Whilst Caspian can compose 12-minute epics like the best of them, they've also cracked the art of the concise and easy listening with the elegantly simple and simply elegant Dust and Disquiet. And it's quite lovely.
