This Will Destroy You – Young Mountain

by Jess on April 3rd, 2010 in Post-rock

Young Mountain is perfect. It is the perfect blend of quiet and loud, of rising and falling, of fast and slow. The six-song debut album from Texas post-rock band This Will Destroy You leaves the listener yearning for much more, even after the final note has faded. The band departs from traditional post-rock conventions of fifteen-minute songs by creating an album that lasts only 36 minutes. But they make every minute count. They start quiet, but build-up quickly, filling the tracks with intensity.

I absolutely love this album, my favorite track being The World is Our _____. I used it for my stretch challenge.
