We can discover a brand new artist on the opposite side of the globe in seconds without a radio or a music television channel. It only makes sense that a website so dedicated to this gorgeous universe of music would [...]
If These Trees Could Talk Red Forest Science of Silence Records 19 March 2012 by Ruth Booth Remember, as a kid, looking at clouds and trying to make them into things, like animals, or dinosaurs, or huge castles and cities? Red Forest , the second album from If These Trees Could Talk , is a pretty piece of [...]
If you love atmospheric, spacey post-metal as much as we do, well, boy oh boy, do we have a treat for you today: Red Forest, the new, limited-edition vinyl LP from If These Trees Could Talk. In the same vein as Scale the Summit, Junius, and This Will Destroy You, Red Forest is a lush, epic tongue [...]

We had been waiting on this one for a long time, and it was well worth it. Currently working on a new album, ITTCT is at it again, just waiting to blow your mind with their music. We spoke to Michael, who has such a sweet last name, and he gave us the need-to-know about the Trees. Ben: What bands really got you into post-rock? Michael: Mostly bands like Mogwai and Explosions In The Sky. Our drummer Zack had gotten into those types of bands early on. In [...]
this new primer covers what you could call the "post-slint" side of post-rock; these are bands that tend to start quiet then get really loud then get quiet again. they tend to be on very good terms with their distortion pedals. they tend not to involve singers. they are frequently exhileratingly predictable (i went through a phase of being "off mogwai" because it always feels like you know what's coming next, until i realised i wanted to hear it anyway). they tend to have very muscular bass sounds. i like all of those things. ::: [...]

Download audio file (ITTCT.mp3) There's nothing I love more than knowing I'm going to love an entire album before even hearing the whole thing. Then again, I'm a music junkie with little to no life. But that's the feeling I got with both albums released by If These Trees Could Talk. I found their self-titled debut a few months back before their follow-up was released. I would have published a review sooner, but it got pushed back to accommodate several new releases. Ironically, they had a new release right under my nose. No worries though, I [...]
Meet If These Trees Could Talk, an instrumental band from Akron, Ohio. If These Trees Could Talk border on metal the same way bands like Dredg, Muse, Maserati and Russian Circles do - for the most part they stick to delicate but rocking atmospheric grooves, but occasionally they kick it into high gear for cathartic [...]
During our last installment of Maybe They Will Sing For Us Tomorrow we went over some of the quieter, prettier members of post-rock's extended family, so I thought it was only fitting to jump into the ugly heavy side that is Post-Metal for this installment. If minimalist classical is the delicate beauty in the family, [...]
