out Of The Box On Sunday XXXII

Belgian math-rock with some post-hardcore, Terraformer (facebook) is a heavy-hitting complexely-structured instrumental band. Start/stop, tapping, dissonant and tremolo riffing with occasional hardcore breakdowns and punk rock or power chords desperately being tamed by erratic drumming, while the bass guitar loosely jams, both often in polyrythms.

outside the box on sunday III

 listen to Just Like That by Tangled Hair

Brittish band Tangled Hair (bandcamp) plays the most mellow Math-like music that ever appealed to me so much. as if they play a compromise between Foals' lengthy sweet ballads and their older energetic and fleeting songs with apparent pop-punk influences that remind me of the noodly guitars and odd time signatures of indie-ish emo bands. throw in a cheesy brittish accent, and you have an idea of Tangled Hair's musical foundation. to those who aren't frightened by such a description, you should have already checked it out by now.
