One of my favorite parts about the advent of the internet and the cheapening of digital technology is that everyone has the chance to make a bold statement and get it heard. Ten years ago, a DIY band like Calgary, Canada's The Unravelling wouldn't have registered a blip on the collective consciousness. Now they've got [...]
It seems like the number of "Why did you ban me from commenting?!?" e-mails from readers has increased as of late, and the gist of those e-mails is often "Whassa matter, can't take it when someone tells you you suck?" or whatever. And we've never banned anyone for disagreeing with us. We don't give a [...]
Welcome to the latest edition of "Freeloader" in which we review albums that you don't have to feel like a douche for downloading for free. Today Satan Rosenbloom checks out the debut album from The Unravelling. When last we met with Calgary's musical journeyman Steve Moore back in 2009, he was helming prog-metal band Inner [...]
The Unravelling is an eclectic progressive rock/metal duo from Calgary, Canada. Inspired by diverse artists such as Dead Can Dance, Tool, Opeth, Nine Inch Nails, Arcana, Jeff Buckley and Dillinger Escape Plan, the Unravelling's music ranges from the engaging and inviting to the aggressive and threatening. The music is intended to be both cathartic and inspiring. A confidante of the band remarked that "The Unravelling sounds like the illegitimate love child of Lisa Gerrard And Zack de la Rocha". Pure Grain Audio describes their sound as "tactfully diverse music that's overflowing with a bloodthirsty passion." Music Connection Magazine named them in their top 25 new [...]
Well ladies and gentlemen, I have decided to enter the podcasting world and present a show that showcases some of the bands Under The Dog writes about and hopefully some that I don't have time to write about. As I've stated before, UTD is expanding it's music to more than heavy ass abrasive music and branching out into more stuff that I think continues on the tradition here at UTD. Since it's not going to be all hardcore and metal, I'm gonna place the mellowest songs first, move into hip-hop and transition over to the most abrasive stuff at [...]

If a band's list of influences include groups such as Dead Can Dance, Tool, Opeth, Nine Inch Nails, Arcana, Jeff Buckley and Dillinger Escape Plan, you know their music will be good. This is the case of Calgary's The Unravelling, a progressive rock band whose music will steer you to descriptive superlatives such as haunting, intense, engaging, inviting, threatening. The kicker of their music is the band is a duo; The Devil Has The Best Tuna penned the best description I've come across for the music of Gustavo De Beauville [...]

It's been quite some time since I last posted anything on Something Chewie I admit. However, when I received today's track by Calgary, Canada's "The Unravelling", I felt I would be doing a great disservice if I didn't post what looks to be an incredibly promising new progressive rock band. Describing their debut album as a "psycho-analytical concept album", you can expect to be in for some dark, moody - but fundamentally - deep music. Their album is set to release later this year, although in the mean time, the majority of their music can be heard on their official [...]

I went out to Coachella this weekend and, for the most part, I wasn't really that impressed. A lot of acts just don't know how to get the crowd going. One band that is the complete opposite of this is Dr. Dog . They were very impressive. It was my third time seeing them and I was blown away, again. They might be my favorite act out there right now. Even when they were having some sound problems with one of the guitars on stage, it was still an awesome set. I think their most [...]

Smack dab in the middle of their U.S. tour for the immensly popular album, Unraveled , Miggs lead and hep cat Don Miggs broke away from his band duties and shared a few minutes with us on our comfy couch of questions. Here's what Don has to say about the art on songwriting. When I was a kid, growing up in a house with Cat Stevens, Neil Diamond, Johnny Mathis, Perry Como, and Simon & Garfunkle, the first time I ever hear Kiss's "Detroit Rock [...]

English Version: Don't you remember when Thom Yorke said one day.... "I'm trying to get Radiohead to do a cover because I think it's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard." ? Well, I don't know if they have covered that song (Bjork's Unravel) before, but if you read the news yesterday, we were waiting for " something to happen " on radiohead.tv Finally Thom played Unravel.......
