Description:
It's been a while since I've made a post on this thing and it has been because of many reasons (work being the main one), but to summerize everything: this blog is not dead.
The Fall of Boss Koala were an indcredible long standing post-rock/screamo band from Scotland who disbanded after being together for 4 years. What makes this band standout the most to me is how amazing their ambient/instrumental interludes are throughout their songs; it's as if they're a screamier version of Explosions in the Sky - which is never a bad thing. Their older stuff (Thank God for Left Hand Drive) has a lot more emo-esque singing involved than on Reference Points and the production quality isn't as great. If nothing interests you about this band, listen to: "I Love My Dead Gay Son Pt. 1 & 2," from Reference Points - you will be amazed. Below are both of their releases: Reference Points and Thank God for Left Hand Drive. Get into it.
