Knot Feeder

This band is a super group for anyone into instrumental math rock. Its headed by Mike Banfield, one of the founding members of Don Caballero.  You should be interested right off the bat with that little tidbit. Considering he sort of disappeared from music after the release of “What Burns Never Returns.” Their drummer and guitarist come from the band Tabula Rasa and their bassist is from the band Southpaw. All from Pittsburgh. What can be expected of their sound? To me, its reminiscent of a less “Che’d” Don Cab. “For Respect” era plus the good, actual cohesive, musical ideas from “What Burns Never Returns.” But who cares what I think, listen to them for yourself.

You can listen to a couple of songs at Knot Feeder's Myspace Page.
Here is a short clip of them in studio recording their album "Light Flares" with J. Robbins.
And here is a live video from their record release show last month. 
(Pretty sure it was taken with a cell or something. Dont mind the video quality, just listen to the music. haha.)
