4) Burning Bones - Day Dreams 

 

 

News from Leeds, UK indie-rock / shogaze band... 

 

Daydreams marks a bold new chapter for Burning Bones, diving deep into fresh sounds, textures, and for the first time, vocals. This record weaves a seamless blend of Post-Rock, Post-Metal, Nu Jazz, and Progressive Rock, taking listeners on an expansive yet deeply personal journey. Inspired by the likes of Interpol, Turnover, and Oasis, Burning Bones maintains their roots while evolving, paying homage to Post-Rock pioneers like Explosions in the Sky, This Will Destroy You, and Mogwai. 

The EP features rich, layered soundscapes, shimmering guitar riffs, and dynamic drum patterns that shift effortlessly from serene melodies to powerful crescendos. The resulting sound is both familiar and refreshingly unique—an emotional rollercoaster that speaks to long-time Post-Rock fans and invites new listeners to explore the genre’s depths.
