46. Ef: Delusions of Grandeur



A few times down the line, you find a band that is unbelievably fantastic but for one reason or another, they don't get nearly as much recognition as you'd think they would. A couple times in plug, I've played albums by Ef, more specifically the Delusions of Grandeur album, and while people are not necessarily blown away by the music itself, I know a few people I've shown it to have loved it. The album in question features 3 tracks, with the Delusions of Grandeur track starting it off with a 9 minute banger. Of course, I know there are people out there wondering how I could sit through almost 10 minutes of post-rock, but don't worry, there's a nearly 12 minute track to close the album up.

It may seem like a lot of work to get through this album, but I assure you it isn't. It's done well enough that you hardly feel like you're spending nearly a half hour listening to 3 tracks. The album features the post-rock vibes mixed with some vocals that really suit the entire atmosphere very well. It's one of the few times where vocals in a post-rock formula work really well.

They've got a number of albums in their catalog, so if you're interested, certainly check them out. From experience, you'll find something you love in their music if you don't necessarily get blown away by Delusions of Grandeur.
