Rooftops - math rock, progressive, instrumental

Another math rock band that I really like. I'd would say that Rooftops is alittle more easy listening compared to Bulletproof Tiger but nonetheless as good. I just get that the sense that everyone in this band is just really skilled. The upbeat music from the basic guitar/drum/bass with irregular and dynamic rhythms is how i would define this band. but be sure to note some of the variation such as gang vocals and the horn section which helps keep things anew.

similar artists: This Town Needs Guns, El Ten Eleven, Piglet, Bulletproof Tiger.

This video includes two tracks from the band. Be sure to check out both for a full idea of what this band is. Second song "Raft Easily" starts at the 1:00 mark.

One negative thing about the band is it seems like they are no longing going. I'm not certain on that but they have seemed to be fairly inactive since April 2010 when they released "A forest of polarity" on vinyl. So yeah that sucks I was hoping to see more from these guys.
