Alban B. Clay (2014) – The Slaughterhouse 5

Denmark

tags: alternative, rock, art rock, alternative pop, alternative rock, death pop, math pop, math rock

Tim Brown (Icarus the Owl) included this in his Top 10 list but I didn’t really give it as good of a listen as I should have right of the bat. He messaged me telling me to listen to this and that I should do a Bandcamp Adventures post on whatever niche it was (I went with math pop). After giving it a real listen, I can’t really stop listening to anything else. This is a great concept album. It’s just a great album period. Listen to it. Please?
