Dianogah's Battle Champions is Jay Ryan and Jason Harvey, tandem bassists who decided to try on the guitar for this recording. This 2000 release is brave and daring, with shifting melodies and even shiftier time signatures. It was produced by master indie technician Steve Albini. This is Chicago post-rock at its finest. The contrapuntal melodies that Jay Ryan and Jason Harvey lay down are sonorous and fresh. In a lot of ways, the instrumental interplay is a lot like that of Tortoise, but it's hard to make post-rock allusions and not refer back to them, especially when the ensemble you're speaking of is in from Chicago. Dianogah's Battle Champions is a fantastic recording, and one that truly breathes with a reviving freshness. This disc is out on the Southern records label and should be available most everywhere. Fine disc. ~ Matt Borghi

2nd RelMagnet (8-9/00, p.71) - "...Defenders of musical subtlety and calculated instrumentation....composing their songs with the kind of attention to detail every group wishes it could emulate..."
The Wire (8/00, p.58) - "...Sedately unruffles Chicago math-rock for college geeks everywhere to take delight....at their best [they] come closest to the quirky twin-bass serenity fashioned by Mike Watt and Kira in Dos..."

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars jubilant bass arrangments
Being a 4 & 6 string bass player, when I first heard Dianogah I was totally blown away that there was a band like them out there. So I went and ordered all their CD's. Battle Champions, their second full length release is great for anyone who loves the sound of the bass mixed with tenor bass and unreal drumming. This CD is timeless and a must have
