Description/Reviews
Most post-rock is atmospheric and emotional and this describes Wolves as well. Their 5-8 minute long tracks are comprised generally of two guitars (both guys play guitar) playing off of each other, mostly clean single notes or chords with occasional feedback, distortion, and effects. The drumming comes and goes as needed when things need to rock out. The title track opens in gorgeous fashion with acoustic guitar and Faltisco's dreamy/distant vocal (there's a bit of singing, not much) before they launch into a harder rocking section. It's dramatic and bold sounding, in my view the best piece on the album. "Plus the Monkey" also gets a bit funky and sounds more in line with stuff like Oceansize, as did "Sails". Much of the rest tends to be pretty mellow, occasionally subdued, but always tasteful and enjoyable.
