Sonorous Gale is one of the best Buffalo bands no one's talking about. Sure, they have their built in fanbase, but for how good they are, it's a shame more people don't tune in. I really, REALLY like this band.

Think a darker, heavier Fugazi, or Icarus Line. I'm even hearing some Torche on this new EP, although i'm sure many would disagree. Discordant, angular and pressing, this is slow-driving, sludge building rock'n'roll. Walls of riffs that build upon each other, until the tower crashes, and leaves only the remnants behind. Tension-release personified.

Listen to their new EP, The Total Overcomers: A Saga, on their bandcamp page. It was recorded at Hi/Lo and, like everything else Matt Smith touches, it's pure gold. While you're at it, check SG out at the Polish Library benefit on June 1st. Great stuff coming from these guys.
