BankSwallow: With natural groove of the odd time signatures…..

Tweet

The band BankSwallow is hailing from Toronto in Canada. The band states on Bandcamp, «And while they were running, were they swallowed whole, their whereabouts only sometimes reflected in the tinted glass of tall buildings….».

One of the band`s fans is Fitzdrum and he states, «The natural groove of the odd time signatures is comforting and tense! Interesting compositions that develop great atmosphere throughout each song. The musicianship is fabulous. Great guitar tones and solos, drum grooves that can be dense yet relaxed, and heavy too. The keyboard provide perfect colour. Mellotron is used throughout the album giving it a kind sinister undertone. It’s a sound I’ve always adored! I love all the tracks, especially NetF*AANGed and Nine Lives. Buy this album».
