Absolutely terrific! Was starting to really like this band about 2/3 of the way through this video, then they played Life On Mars. Forget it. It's over. I have a new favorite band.
just got back from seeing these guys, I am embarresed to say that when I was standing there with Ethan and Dave I was struck dumb =( I had wanted to say something to them, but forgot what it was. . .
um...what is EPK? This song is Physical Cities. And yea they are phenomenal! This year alone I've seen them, and Happy Apple, and I'm going to see them again in a couple weeks. Jawdropping live performances.
seriously, nothing I could possibly post here could capture what their creations communicate -- it's an entirely new language with no boundaries. Overwhelming, yet completely satisfying--a sexual experience.
One of the hottest bands in the worlds! I've seene them live at the Village Vanguard in NY. They play another complete set after the show. A deal with the crowd for ten bucks! Cool! Talked with them and they are really open-minded guys. Think about TBP in 20 years....aaargghhh!!!
I'm really stoked to have stumbled upon this group. Some amazing, innovative stuff. Oh, and Dave King rocks out like no other "jazz" drummer! Simply incredible!

@ridlenturtle It's "Giant" by Reid Anderson. One of the highlights of this album and one of my favourite pieces by The Bad Plus.
