Chicago-based experimental rock trio RLYR (pronounced Relayer) present their sophomore album Actual Existence on The Flenser, a four song full-length that distills and expands on the explosive energy and anthemic catharses of the band's 2015 debut Delayer. This album represents a step forward in complexity for the instrumental band. Comprised of Steven Hess (Locrian, Cleared, etc.), Colin DeKuiper (Bloodiest, ex-Russian Circles), and Trevor Shelley de Brauw (Pelican, Chord, etc.), RLYR have fine-tuned their MC Escher-esque song structures while preserving the indelible earworm melodies that are their hallmark. \"This is uncommonly optimistic post-rock, then, deliberately using the strength of the style's sound to summon something more than temporary fury.\" - Pitchfork. \"What makes RLYR truly impressive is the patience in which they apply pressure. They never allow for a frenzy they didn't build toward, and give their aggression space to ebb and flow in a way that settles the tension into a continuous stream.\" - Stereogum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RLYR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46061999358197,"sku":"647603400013","price":18.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/9325\/5669\/files\/0647603400013.jpg?v=1731289610","url":"https:\/\/thevinylvista.com\/products\/647603400013","provider":"Vinyl Vista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
