And the Weathermen Shrug Their Shoulders

The Ex

Jagged post-punk meets avant-garde cello. A dense, dark collision of Turkish folk, anarchist politics, and percussive atonal rhythms.

A tense, intellectual collision of jagged rhythms and haunting, global-influenced melodies.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the cello mimics a distorted guitar riff on the opening track
G.W. Sok's rapid-fire delivery on What's the Story over a frantic rhythm
The delicate plucked accents that create a haunting oriental atmosphere on Okinawa Mon Amour
The slow-burning tension of War O.D. as it builds into a chaotic climax
