I don’t know why…….Since I have been listening a couple of their tracks few years back, I’m not too interested to try their first same-named album in 2008 from this Texas-based This Will Destroy You who are formed in 2005 as I think their post rock stuff is a bit too atmospheric too ambient.
Nevertheless, I keep hearing many positive comments on them last couple of years……so decided to make a try on their 2nd album ‘Tunnel Blanket’ and the result is just so rewarding…….if your frustrated or exhausted mind needs some escape and This Will Destroy You will bring you a mind traveling journey in a silent night with ever changing soundscape flying through empty lonely forest and isolated wave-blasting shore and even immersing in quiet ocean sea with your ears blocking by sea water hearing blurred sound/noise……..it’s a really ambitious album trying to achieve to blending everything in their own evolving post rock sound like Nadja’s high-pressure life-distorted doom noise, Eluvium’s thoughtful after-life shoegaze ambient, Godspeed’s beautiful epic orchestral post rock, etc…….a really cool and emotional post rock album that will bring you surprises!!
