[mp3] Maps & Atlases- Big Bopper Anthems




Maps & Atlases. If you've never heard of them, they are quite an earful. What style are they? Honestly, it's hard for me to say. They are very technical musically, which lends me to describe them as a "math rock" band. Yet, at the same time they have such an organic and calming feel to their sound. They beautifully blend the (from time to time elaborately) technical with just the right amount of laid-back flow. Sometimes their music sounds massive and fast, and sometimes it is multi-instrumental and you feel like you're simply breezing through it. These guys are currently getting some heavy play time on my computer and in my car.

In September, they begin a month-long tour with Ra Ra Riot and Princeton. The tour hits Philadelphia's Trocadero on October 2nd.
