From Monument to Masses at the Empty Bottle tomorrow

Gotta admit, From Momument to Masses' music scares me a little. It's all so ominous, so dense and so overwhelming. If Explosions in the Sky is the equivalent of an orchestra of guitars, From Monument to Masses is that same orchestra, except they're hell-bent on making everyone in the concert hall shift uncomfortably in their seats. And, what can I say, they're good at what they do. Their latest album is On Little Known Frequencies, which hit shelves on March 10. You can hear it on Future Perfect Radio's New Music channel right now.

The group's engaging, politically-charged, yet sometimes unusual style of post-rock will be on showcase tomorrow night at Chicago's Empty Bottle. Buy tickets here.
