Caught this band at a festival day and thought they were real cool especially as I'd never heard of them. Do they have any sort of following? Any recommendation on albums?

I like them, seen them live, they were great. Only albums I have are All Is Violent All Is Bright and Far From Refuge. Happy to recommend both.

Very solid post rock band, if maybe not the most original. But they deliver what I love about this genre. I have God is an Astronaut (2008), Epitaph, and Ghost Tapes #10. Epitaph is darker than the two others. I'd probably say this is the best one, it has its own atmosphere and makes me think less of Mogwai and other influences, but ultimately they are all good, not that much between them.

^I will second Ghost Tapes #10. It's the only album I have by them and I enjoyed it very much. Hoping to eventually have the time to explore them further in the future.
