Chicago’s Maps and Atlases can at times be a wall of spazzy finger tapping riffs driven by equally mathematical drumbeats. But that’s just their front, because deep down, they are complex and loving. Away from their hyper active time signatures and Indy yelps, Maps and Atlases can break away and lull you with songs such as the ongoing horrible proving that technical doesn’t have to be intrusive in this scene.Their finger tapping driven riffs can’t help but make the listener feel as if someone has sped up their favourite Minus The Bear album, but they are more than that. They actually do have their own sound that encapsulates the listener and tricks them into thinking they could do it themselves.
Note to listener, you probably can’t do this yourself!
