Vessels

Helioscope


Post Rock g their second studio longplayer helioscope leedsbased fivepiece vessels have dropped a hint as to its content recorded with grammynominated producer john congleton explosions in the sky this will destroy you modest mouse in the heat of the texan summer these nine tracks are the sunscorched yin to the yang of the snowcapped peaks of vessels' debut of 2008 white fields open devices where its predecessor was a studied exercise in structure which played many a postrock trump card this collection sings with a newfound freeness and looseness that's not to say these arrangements are roughofedge or shabby of design far from it these motifs and melodies are cunningly crafted burrowing deep into the synapses with little resistance riffs and rhythms tap into some innate appreciation of music both intuitive and intellectual the buildandbreak dynamics executed effortlessly on white fields are present again but complemented by a greater appreciation of technology of the possibilities afforded by the modern recording process
