    I'm in Ottawa. Shipping in Canada really depends but somewhere around 12-16 CAD (somewhere around 9-12 USD). It's expensive.

    New one for anyone with some spare time:
     

     
    I don't know that I've ever listened to an album that sounds so much like a mash-up of post-rock/noise bands at polar opposite ends of the spectrum. Tracks 1 and 2 sound like vintage Godspeed, circa Skinny Fists and Yanqui. All of a sudden track 3 comes on and the first five minutes feel like I just pulled a B-side from Saxon Shore's latest, until it collapses in chaos, ushering in "Roads:" a swirling, apocalyptic concoction of distortion and percussion not unlike Year of No Light or familiar "Piss Crowns" from Godspeed's Asunder. The last two songs bring the album full-circle; "Gathering Clouds" brings back the old-school Godspeed goodness with hints of Mono shining through, while "Parting Hymns" is a largely upbeat finale with chimes and guitar loops that reminder me of Do Make Say Think, although that may perhaps be more my initial reaction than from any actual likeness. Highly recommended.

    True @Sasan . And another reason is people deal with loss in different ways. While some people would like to come here and talk about it, perhaps some people here actually expressed their feelings to the band directly, to their social media, whatever.

    The TRNA album they are pressing is that one from last year (Lose Yourself to Find Peace).

    Been listening to Cascades a good bit over these last few weeks. More Post-Metal than Post-Rock but definitely good stuff.

    Anyone who wants an invite to the new *Record Forum PM me with your email address.
    Just a heads up: it's only going to be a small handful of people for a bit until we get it all set up. We want it up and running before unveil it to all of you. We want it fully functioning so you can log in and go, instead of there really not being much to look at. I will keep log of all the invites. Thanks.
     
    * - It won't be just post rock stuff. We're thinking of making it a total VC replacement / alternative in time.

    Ahah yeah it's great stuff! I have been listening to it quite a lot recently as well as their back catalog. Was it the post of their previous record  you saw on Instagram?That was probably me.

    This is really good stuff. You were right... completely under the radar! No Facebook page and nothing really came up on most post rock groups.
