The Appleseed Cast thread

[lostpilot]

I think this band deserved to have a thread, since it's one of the greatest bands I've ever encountered.

Their genre ranges from emo in early records, then passing by indie and now forming a new genre - mashed indie post-rock with some electronica influences. Actually it's pretty much hard for me to define their genre clearly.. So, they are releasing their new album in four days, on 17th, which had already leaked and proved to be one absolutely great album - and yes, this opinion is highly subjective..

In my opinion, their best work until now is Low Level Owl, two volume album that is absolutely solid in depth, style and atmosphere. It is actually one of my favourite albums ever, and I highly reccomend everyone to download it ASAP.

yeah, Two Conversations is also very much awesome. 'Losing Touching Searching' is one of the best songs ever..

Low Level is good, but for most of the time, Mare Vitalis kinda stuck out for me. But they really have made 2 GREAT albums in a row now. Peregrine i loved, and now Sagarmatha just keeps growing and growing on me.

I've been listening to their new album non stop recently. South Col is a great song.

i listened through a few of their albums. I'm not impressed, but maybe i've listened to the wrong stuff. It all seemed so uneventful.
