The Appleseed Cast has a sound that you might have a hard time categorizing until you hear someone use the phrase "Midwest post-rock." Then it becomes obvious that that's exactly what they sound like, even if the term itself is really kind of baffling. You have to hear it to understand: the Appleseed Cast's sound is often noisy, but is never just noise; they experiment with weird and unusual production approaches, but you wouldn't call them avant-garde. Nestled within the sometimes dense clouds of guitar noise are genuinely attractive hooks, and their songs often contain puzzling but highly effective contradictions. Note, for example, "Here We Are (Family in the Hallways)," which is one of the album's finest tracks and sounds both chaotically hooky and energetically heartbroken. Nothing can really prepare you for the sonically bizarre "Mountain Halo," but then, the Robert Smith vocal inflections on "February" are every bit as surprising. The instrumental tracks are all very interesting, but with the exception of the excellent "An Orange and a Blue," none is as engaging as the songs, and the one that ends the program takes things out with more of a whimper than a bang. Recommended overall. ~ Rick Anderson

| | Explosions In The Sky All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone CD (2007)
Peregrine
$12.19
Recording information: Minnesota (08/2006).
Back in the mid 1990s, when post-rock dominated the indie landscape, instrumental bands offered a sonic vision beyond what they saw to be the tired rock clichés of 4/4 time and G-C-D riffs, but very often negated the simple energy that makes rock so vital in the process. On their second full-length ALL OF A SUDDEN I MISS EVERYONE, Explosions in the Sky do not make such mistakes. The Austin quartet (yes, there are only four of them generating all this sound) take cues from the post-rock era but apply an energetic, improvisational rock approach full of relentless tension and bursts of beauty. The sound of a chamber orchestra afire, ...

Recording information: 1986.
The debut Black Tape album, especially in light of the band's later efforts, makes for an interesting listen in retrospect. On the one hand, much of what would make Black Tape so distinct is already in place: vocalist Oscar Herrera's passionate interpretation of Rosenthal's romantically obsessed lyrics, Rosenthal's own moody, ...

Peregrine
$25.29
Mbira DzeNharira is a seven piece (depending on the day) mbira group that plays the "mbira orchestra" made popular by Garikai. Lead by Wilferd MaAfrica, and Tongerai Bangure, They are a musical powerhouse that has made them the only traditional mbira group to reach the ZBC number one slot on the popular music charts. Their tight harmonies and singing about modern issues as they relate to the spirit have touched many of the younger generation in Zimbabwe and helped vitalize the mbira scene for everyone. They are a constant presence on the radio and television in Zimbabwe, and that doesn't look like it will change any time soon.The mbira orchestra has been steadily gaining popularity and acceptance by the mbira community in Zimbabwe. While there are those that say it is not a traditional approach, there are certainly plenty of others that feel it is traditional. The main test of course is whether the spirits approve, and judging by Mbira DzeNharira's busy schedule and steady engagements at religious ceremonies, there certainly are many spirits that do approve of the orchestra. The orchestra is created by playing many mbira that are in tune together, but whose pitches start and end at different points of the scale (or mode) from each other. If thought of in a Western harmonic sense, an mbira may be tuned to: G, A, B, C, D, E, F, G-from lowest to highest. Another mbira may be tuned from C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C,-from lowest to highest, and so on. One can then see that there are seven different possibilities of modal choices for the mbira (in a seven note scale), and orchestras will often have seven or more mbira players playing. It is also common ...
