New York’s Fall of the Albatross are a peculiar band that sits confidently and comfortably at the crossroads of post-rock, jazz fusion, and mathcore. Their latest album Enormous Cloud acts as a treatise on challenging instrumental music, both aurally and technically, from the elegantly ethereal opener ‘Reality to Reverie, Reverie to Reality’ to the schizophrenic and jagged call-and-response of ‘In The Interest of Time.’

Being fans of weirdo prog freakouts, we’re excited to act as hosts to Enormous Cloud and all the havok and headscratching it’s sure to bring. Stream the album in its entirety after the jump.
