song of the day: march 13/2011

Apostle of Hustle - My Sword Hand's Anger
Album: National Anthem of Nowhere [2007]

from their second album, apostle of hustle discard notions of cleanly cut verses and choruses and concentrate more on overall effect and tone. actually, the songs that wander a bit within the layered electric guitars lines, that are darker and more menacing, and that play with trip-hop and post-rock arrangements - whose drums (both organic and programmed) echo solidly off the vocals and the churning bass - work better than the songs in which they stick more closely to traditional structure and poppy chords. there are moments of greatness here, as this song proves.
