Revere

[Obi]

"London (UK) band REVERE incorporate violin, cello, keys, trumpet and harp into a guitar-led sound, touching on numerous musical reference points, combining elements of gypsy marches, klezmer, post rock, film scores and gospel into a truly unique sound.

Live, REVERE play with an unparalleled intensity, working songs from music-box soft openings into relentless walls of sound shot through with a show-stopping falsetto."

Anyone heard of these guys?

They have an album coming out soon and I've not heard a bad song by them yet. It's absolutely beautiful music. There's a Muse resemblance in parts, and Jeff Buckley too. If you like post-rocky stuff like Sigur Rós, Oceansize or Arcade Fire then you'll like them a lot (I hope).

Oh, and as well as being an amazing song, this video is just fantastic:

I've heard a lot about them via Amplifier and Oceansize but never really taken the time to check them out.

I will though.

Just listening to Hey! Selim for the first time, pretty amazing stuff :happy:

[Wind Sorcerer]

I like. Kinda Sigur Ros-ey.

Need to get their debut.

[Obi]

They remind me a lot of Godspeed as well on the debut. I've published a Revere playlist on iTunes for anyone interested in getting into them, as they have released a lot of stuff over the past few years that didn't make the album but is just as good.

[Wind Sorcerer]

Yeah, defo some Godspeed and maybe even Mogwai in there aswell.
