YOU COULD BE LISTENING TO RUSSIAN CIRCLES’ EMPROS RIGHT NOW

Russian Circles’ new album, Empros, is streaming over at Spin right now. It’s the first time I’m hearing the full album, but so far, I’m liking what I hear. The word I’ve used again and again and again to describe this band’s music is “cinematic,” but I really can’t think of a more fitting adjective; every time I hear Russian Circles, it really does sound, to my ears at least, like they’re scoring some never-produced-film. Close your eyes and listen; that movie looks pretty awesome, doesn’t it?

Listen here, then let us know what you think in the comments section below. Empros comes out October 25 via Sargent House.
