A Lot Like Birds (and nothing like fish) [Promo]

A couple years ago, I went through a post-hardcore phase.  I began listening to The Devil Wears Prada and We Came As Romans.  I had friends introduce me to Memphis May Fire and Of Mice & Men (which I still believe are two of the best bands in the genre).  But I've only recently stumbled on A Lot Like Birds.  And I instantly loved them.

You may not be a big fan of the genre, it's definitely not for everyone.  People screaming, loud guitars, sometimes too much bass, and a lot of emotion goes into this music.  Sometimes they're very angry.  And sometimes A Lot Like Birds is the same way.  But they're different from other bands in one very key way:  They didn't start out as a post-hardcore group, so their sound is incredibly different.  Incredible lyrics, amazing vocals and wonderful instrumentation make their album Conversation Piece a masterpiece.  It gets better with every listen.

There's not much to say about this group, because so much of their music cannot be expressed through words.  But I urge you to try them out.  They currently have a single out for the new album, you can listen to it here.

Conversation Piece can be streamed from the Bandcamp page.
