One of those tracks where Duvdev's background in rock really shines through. Great mood boost.

…And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead — How Near How Far (2002) (youtu.be)

Sonic wall of angst and yet beautiful.

Trail of Dead is a post-hardcore band from the 90's. Great sense of musicianship, especially the drumming. Sources and Codes (2002) is an overall 10/10 album for me.

I had no context for this. I'm just on vacation flipping through the TV, this music video by some band unbeknownst to me comes on and I'm going WTF in the best way🔥
