Vessels

British indie electronic band Vessels formed in 2005 after they reshuffled the lineup of their previous outfit, with Lee J. Malcolm (guitars, laptop, and vocals), Tom Evans (guitar, vocals), Martin Teff (bass, synth), and drummer Tim Mitchell completing the group. While a part of the Leeds-based band's sound occupies similar post-rock territory to Mogwai and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, they take influence from electronica elements in much the same way as contemporaries 65daysofstatic, and draw on the likes of Battles, Four Tet, and electronic instruments within their complex sound.

Earth

An American band formed in 1989 in Olympia, Washington. After releasing the ‘genre defining’ album Earth 2 on sub pop in 1993, the band had some time off in 1997 till 2002 or 2003 when they returned to musical activity. In 2005, they released ‘hex, or printing in the infernal method’ an imaginary western soundtrack (also described as ‘genre defining’), followed by many other records, among which ‘the bees made honey in the lion’s skull’ has been the most well received critically and commercially.
