Dinosaur Bones - Shaky Dream [CD]

2013 release from Toronto's critically acclaimed Indie Rock band. Late last year, Dinosaur Bones decamped to Texas to work on their second full-length album, Shaky Dream. Teaming up with the production lead of John Congleton (St. Vincent, the Walkmen, Explosions in the Sky) the band found themselves immersed in a study of sound; in some cases, challenging and peeling back layers of their songs and taking them in directions they hadn't contemplated before. The resulting 10 tracks are thematically steeped in self-reflection, yearning for honest communication and filled with a blend of dark pop, bombastic hooks, and flourishing rhythmic drone.
