hey internet world.
did you ever notice how hard it is to find good music these days. bands sound like one another, music has become more about popularity and less about expression. but the mark of truly great music in my opinion is innovation. getting a hold of unique music is deeply gratifying. its like listening to art. i’ve been listening to a band called Moving Mountains recently, and they are the epitome of innovative fresh music. here’s an excerpt from they’re myspace page.
“Pneuma is a collision of emo-rock glory, math-y dynamics, waves of complex melody and epic atmospherics…and it’s nothing short of stunning. As the title suggests (Greek for “breathe”), Moving Mountains has created an album that lives and breathes with each graceful crescendo and every shimmering arpeggio. The complex, multi-layered arrangements are complimented by vague literary references, whose powerful themes enable the music to resonate emotionally without being overly particular. Tossing aside the constrictions that most bands place on their art, Pneuma looks toward the future and transcends boundaries while paying homage to past and contemporary luminaries.”
They are a breath of fresh air. take a listen.
