Thanks a lot man! Yea we distribute our album through TuneCore, which puts our album in all of the big online stores like iTunes, Spotify, Zune, etc. Although the album is cheaper on our site.

Thanks so much! We have gotten an amazing response so far. My girlfriend has shown me turntable.fm before and it seems really awesome. I'll have to check it out. I gave you a shout out on our FB page and if it's all the same to you, I sent the download code through a private message here.

P.S.- I love your user name and icon/caption. Our album title and some song titles come right out of Cosmos.

Hmm, the video we released as a promo video for the album has some shots of the boat as well as us playing some inside of it.

This is a video about the boat made by the same person who did our promo video.

I wish we toured and I'd love to go back to California. I've only been once when I was on tour with another band. Unfortunately I just don't see us traveling very far. Then again, three years ago I wouldn't have imagined us playing live at all, but here were are doing just that.

Cosmos, Sagan, astronomy/cosmology in general influenced us so much. It's not just a gimmick we used for the album. I own two telescopes, one of which is huge, I'm on the astronomy thread here all the time, and I host small star parties to take friends out and show them awesome things like Jupiter and the Moon despite living in one of the most light polluted cities in the world (NYC).

I saw Explosions in November in Stuttgart and yeah, they really are great live. In the same vein as objectively bad's post, they were supported by The Drift, who are worth a listen I reckon - http://www.myspace.com/trldrift. Sort of jazzy ambient. I'd definitely go see either of them again if I had the chance. I'm also seeing Caspian in about a week which I'm really looking forward to.

I really have to thank this thread, I've gotten into a lot of new bands just on the recommendations in here.

Your music is amazing. When that saxaphone appeared on Singularity I came a little in my pants.

It reminded me of a band from here in the UK called These Monsters:

Thanks! I'm really pleased with out the sax came out. I had never recorded it. Someone who was on the boat temporarily was practicing downstairs and I asked her if she'd wanna play something over a song we had already recorded. Singularity is the result.

That band was interesting. Interesting to see a band that uses the sax so predominately. I will say though that I have a problem with guitarist who play shirtless, haha. Or anybody who plays shoeless. Call me old fashioned.

My favorite sax that makes me mess my pants is Bohren & der Club of Gore. Not really post-rock, more like doom jazz. But it is just so good.

Also, Dominion is a top notch release, and it was for sale online but I think it's sold out now, each copy was numbered too

Post-rock is pretty awesome live.
