Song of the Week: Russian Circles – Harper Lewis

The song that I have for you this week is from a instrumental rock band from Chicago, called Russian Circles. Despite only being a 3 piece band (guitarist, bassist, and a drummer), they manage to create a dense and layered sound, deftly traversing between light, beautiful passages and punishing heavier movements. While in my earlier years, I often shied away from instrumental music thinking it to be uninteresting, Russian Circles is anything but that.

  1. I think I like this band, I will have to try to listen to more of their stuff. It seems like good music to play while gaming. I am also glad you did another song of the week!

  2. Yeah, I would have thought simply instrumental music would be boring, but have found myself listening to Russian Circles a lot this week!
