Title: Dredg
Post by: Peter Linfield on 10 Jun 2005, 19:29

Does anyone here like Dredg? I haven't seen anyone mention them anywhere, but they're really great. Leitmotif is a rocking album, and El Cielo was awesome. I've pre-ordered Catch Without Arms and am really excited about it's arrival at the end of this month. I'm hoping that they bring back a bit more of the rock feel of Leitmotif. But if they don't, I'm sure I'll still love the new album. Any other fans?

Double-posting makes me feel dirty, but this thread getting no replies is even worse... Why does nobody listen to Dredg? They rock.

They're a genre-less band that uses atmosphere and hard rock riffs. They really work to craft those ambience parts and really make them, dare I say, beautiful.

They also have some jazzy breakdowns/jams, etc. They do everything, especially on El Cielo

The only song I've ever heard by Dredg is "Same Ol' Road", and I love it.

I've heard good things about them from several people, and they're on my list of bands' CD's to buy when I have the opportunity.

"Same Ol' Road" is a great track, but it's only one of many great songs from El Cielo. One of the best albums I have, I suggest you buy it ASAP.

Dredg are a really impressive band. Great work instrumentally and even the production deserves a lot of credit.

El Cielo and Leitmotif are great stuff.

I wasn't a big fan of El Cielo. Leitmotif is definitely fantastic though.
