Caspian - The Four Trees (2007)


[Instrumental/Post-Rock]

Caspian's monumental achievement in their first full length "The Four Trees" is undeniable.
There are few words to describe it, but definitely "Breathtaking" would be one of them.

Since there are no vocals, Caspian lets the music speak for them... And in doing so they appeal to an innermost quality in all of us. The ability to imagine. We interpret each piece of music according to our own experiences, our own views of life.

The songs move in a way that crescendos into an explosion of sound. A wall of electrifying guitars, encircled by beautiful melodies.

Sorry to sound so poetic. (Nah, I'm not sorry)
But this band, along with others like Explosions in the sky, Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and others create more than just songs... These are movements.

This is just pure feeling and emotion, put into music for everyone else to understand.
Great music to just sit back, relax, and appreciate.

Check it out.
