Abutting, Dismantling

I'll get minus creativity points for the title of today's post, but the song title was achieving a lot more than anything I was thinking of.

Gregor Samsa's (band not person) album Rest doesn't contain driving melodies or huge sounds but it still manages to knock me off my feet each time. Most groups scream themselves hoarse trying to do what this band has done at the lightest whisper. Where some bands would get you by taking the rug from under your feet, Gregor Samsa switches the carpet in the room without you noticing. Songs change so effortlessly and flow so naturally you don't realize the gears have shifted until you're headed in the complete opposite direction. The actual changes are so minute that you'll be hard pressed to put your finger on what is different, you just know that suddenly this song has turned. These songs may not stick a catchy riff in your head for the rest of the day, but they will project on mood onto you that is hard to shake.
