I just wish there were more of this...

"I wish I knew what this band is up to now (I can't find any information on them). This is about as good as instrumental rock (post-rock) gets. They write mellow, thoughtful works. It's emotive without relying on lyrics/vocals (except for a couple of tracks) or hitting you over the head with distortion pedals to deliver the impact.
You need to check out this band if you are a fan of one or more of the following: The Six Parts Seven, Explosions in the Sky, The Mercury Program, Mogwai, Saxon Shore, Signal Hill, etc. ATR deserves to rank at or above any of these others.
This album is a little more refined than their self-titled, but both are worth a listen. Google the name to get sample tracks. Enjoy."
Just good music...Period

"It's a shame I stumbled across this band too late...
I can't believe I never heard of them before now...
Very nice, melodic instrumental music...Recommended for fans of Explosions in the Sky (without the spacey dreamy parts)
Don't pass this album up...Full of beautiful tunes...
Thanks ATR!!!"
