The End of Science

The listener is provided with all the ingredients required for post-rock fulfillment, all packaged in a way that is refreshing and inspiring. Here we find moments of thunderous drum work, massive, epic guitars, crescendos, and tremolo workouts, but most importantly we find variation and ingenuity. It is easy to create an album full of different musical styles, but YRTHAK provides variation which is not detrimental to its flow. Songs like "The Day Began Like A Fish" and "You are Dead" both embrace post-rock with swirling guitar lines, stunning dynamics and a huge, cavernous sound. Not only are these brilliant examples of how to make post-rock supreme, but they are also stunningly unique. Each song is different from the last, allowing the album to flow easily through styles with no fixed expectation.
