You Wanna Kiss About It? by The Bulletproof Tiger



Kind of like: Rooftops, And So I Watch You..., Piglet
Genres: Math-Rock, Progressive, Indie
Preview:

This came out in December and had I known, it would have topped my best of '11 list. Coming back with 34 minutes of jaw dropping technicality, Toronto's finest craft a pinnacle full length Math-rock album. These guys really grow with this release even approaching a progressive indie rock feel at times. The dynamics are spot on and help the movement of the songs beautifully. The melodic interplay between instruments is improved upon with more nuance than their earlier EP, weaving in and out of odd syncopated rhythms and technical structures with ease. I strongly urge you to head over to their Bandcamp and throw them a few dollars for a high quality version. It's only $5 CAN (even cheaper in USD) and maybe someday we can hope to see it on vinyl.

Stab The New Cherry EP by The Bulletproof Tiger



Kind of like: Rooftops, This Town Needs Guns, Piglet
Genres: Math Rock, Post-rock
Preview:

Super tasty Math/Post Rock from Ontario, Canada. This band shreds to no end. I've been waiting for a full length album, but this EP will keep me entertained for a long time. I hope to see these guys live in the near future, and if you get the chance to, I say do it.

Here is a nice wordy bio:

"From the depths of southern Ontario, this four-piece skirts vocals for calculated yet tuneful waves of tapping-heavy phrases that stay true to slightly dirty, pretty reverby, kinda middy tone that the genre has come to monopolize: enough for the notes to have some teeth, clear enough to make sure all the dexterous string mangling actually gets heard. And having long ditched the picking hand/fretboard hand binary, the band’s decidedly egalitarian approach is not only expressed on their guitar necks, but through their frontman-free take to stage presence."
