The Rise Of Science

How can I dislike a band who names their album after me? Way back in 2008, The Rise Of Science released their excellent album Casey, that still receives spins from me. With vocals that are not unlike ex Tides of Man singer Tillian, and instrumentals that could easily be found on a Circa Survive record, The Rise Of Science combines technical instrumentals with superb hooks. Keys are common and used very well, separating them from the two above bands in a positive manner. "Short Comings Can Be Incomplete" is a perfect representation of the band's sound, with a variety of keys and fluttering guitars surrounding the verses with a much heavier, yet extremely catchy chorus. The band is currently in the studio recording their first release in three years, and you can follow their progress on Facebook here.
