Russian Circles - Geneva

· Unite three musicians playing three unique roles, each
compelled to move in the direction of what is timeless, to
draw on history and take from where they've grown and
from the traditions of music made decades ago - and you'll
craft a moment, a rite of spring, a new foundation akin to
what Russian Circles have accomplished on their third
album, ‘Geneva’.
· ‘Geneva’ is built on brevity, the kind of concise summation
afforded only those curious enough to develop and explore
all relevant options. Yet, it easily feels the most 'alive' of all
the recordings Russian Circles have done to date. Listen at
the opening of ‘Melee’, as the snare drum first strikes and
the rhythm slowly begins to take over. It’s exactly the kind
of memorable, restrained performance that will mark
bandmember Dave not only as a stupendously lithe
drummer but also as a conductor - the dynamic control he
exerts throughout is as integral to the album as the
diversity in timbre. "Everyone supported everyone else's
weirdest ideas," he laughs.
