Maserati

Add Date: November 9 

Artist: Maserati 

Album: Pyramid of the Sun

Label: Temporary Residence Ltd. 

Genre: Post-rock, psychedelic 

Comments: Maserati has been doing instrumental music with post-rock and psychedelic influences for about a decade now. Last year, their drummer, Jerry Fuchs, died unexpectedly in one of those freak elevator accidents you only see in movies. This LP is the first album the band has released since his death, and they wanted it to be a tribute to and a celebration of their friend's talent. Powerful drums and repeating sequences of sounds and synths are basically what characterize this album. Perfect music to study to, if you ask me. Favorite tracks: "Pyramid of the Sun," "Bye M'Friend" and "Goodbye."
