The day Sad Boys is pressed on Vinyl will be a good day. Until then, this is pretty darn good classic post rock with a proggy bent.

Years Under Glass
by Bear the Mammothsupported by 4 fans who also own “Painted Mantra”
I like the stylistic dialogue between this and Yamadori, which appear to me as an expansive study on contrasts, while Years Under Glass is like a subtle, nuanced etching examining harmony and balance, denser and more spiritually distinctive, and the album artwork captures that aptly. It's amazing how it plays with genre tropes, with an amount of this spontaneous, intuitive dynamics and rhythmic power most of the bands don't possess. Thank you for your art guys! Much love from Ukraine :)
