That up there ^ is the artwork for Scottish band North Atlantic Oscillation’s new album. Fog Electric will be released on April 30th, so you’d better prepare yourself for a blast of post-rock-ish goodness, though you should also be aware that the band have this habit of sounding rather diverse, so who’s to say if the sound of Savage With Barometer will have much bearing on how the whole thing is going to sound? More of what that song has to offering wouldn’t be a bad thing at all, though: dreamy arrangements, thudding drums and almost more atmosphere than it is possible to handle. I wasn’t aware a song could continue to build upon itself so many times – fans of glorious crescendos will find much to enjoy in this song, in particular the wall of sound that erupts around three and a half minutes in. This is plenty until the album’s first single proper, Soft Coda, arrives on April 16th, two weeks before the album sees the light of day. Scottish bands seem to have a knack for this kind of thing, and it’s not hard to see why.
