Don Caballero - What Burns Never Returns

Man i don't know how I went this long without posting any don crabs. This here is where you should start, those of you who havent yet had a formal introduction to the band. Properly rocking, moreso than American Don (the followup), but bears a strange beauty that Don Caballero 2 (it's predecessor) lacked. The reason this album really stands out in my book, is because it was the last album that co-founding member and guitarist Mike Banfield played on, and the guitar dynamics between Ian Williams, and Mike on these 8 flawless tracks are really just something special.

Don Caballero - "What Burns Never
Returns" 1998

  1. I can't get enough of this album. The combination of rhythmic complexity and melodic emotion is hard to beat when it's packaged in Don Cab's particular style. Love love love it! I play guitar in the loop-based math/post/prog rock band, Time Columns. The entire foundation of our sound is built on guitar and keyboard looping using the Gibson Echoplex and related loop pedals to create layers of intricate rhythms. I’m wondering if you might be interested in writing a review of our latest album release, Sunriseinthesea EP, or conducting an interview relating to our music, upcoming January tour and looping. Send me an email at timecolumns@gmail.com and I’ll be happy to get you anything you need. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration. Once again, great post!
