If there's anybody thinking that post-rock is just miserably bleak songs about fading into nothingness, this is the time to change this opinion. I haven't had an occasion to please my ears with such an energetic guitar music as this offered by the California Wander for a long time. The San Leandro based quartet knows how to kick ass and force to dance.
There's not one moment of rest on this album, if it's not loud and energetic for a while, it definitely is a bit more quiet and danceable. The album functions as a couple of coffees spiced with taurine. To be honest, the biggest impression leaves the track entitled just like the album - "Glass" in which the energy level goes so high and reaches another level and when it seems that there's no way up to go, the drums turn to almost black metal-like frequencies.
"Magenta" on the other hand brings more epic drums and catchy melody, "Luna" an intense finish, and "Breaker" a long and involving ending to the album. Everything here forces to striking sparks of energy not to get lost behind the raging musicians.
"Glass" is available for pay what you want.
