It's been five years since Massachusetts post-rock six-piece
Caspian delivered the rightfully acclaimed
Dust and Disquiet in 2015. On it, they reinvented post-rock's static modernism through composed and richly textured layers of instrumentation and sonic effects designed to enable spacious rhythmic and timbral experiments. They created a scope far more intuitively cinematic and sonically expansive than music made by virtually any of their peers. Produced and engineered by
Will Yip, the eight-song
On Circles was cut in a Pennsylvania studio during the month of May in 2019.
Yip intuitively illustrates
Caspian's intent to find the invisible intersection between self-generated propulsive rock energy, seduction, and a trance-like penchant for reverie.
