While You Slept - Talk West

Coming off like a post-rock Loren Connors, Tulsa's Dylan Aycock (a.k.a.

On the eleven-minute "Willow and The Dogwood," from Talk West's upcoming debut LP, Black Coral Sprig, tape hiss fills in the negative space between Aycock's melodic noodling, making for a warm atmosphere that hints at the anthemic aspirations of and act like, say, Explosions In The Sky, without the arena-filling histrionics.
