Time Columns

These guys are absolute geniuses. In 5 tracks (4 seasons and a floral one), they will blow you away with their groovy, yet complex, sound. Sure, do they sound a little bit like the instrumental version of Maps & Atlases at some point? Yeah, but they develop it into a psychedelic sound of their own; a sound that is truly 100% unique. At some points, just absolute rhythmic clutter reminiscent of 65daysofstatic. At other points, such clarity and bliss. Favorite track was “Summer”.

Rating: 5/5 powder kegs. I can’t honestly describe this. Maybe later on I’ll rewrite this, adding more detail and such, but for right now, hearing is believing. I never would have thought anything this good could come from 2 people. - Is This Revolutionary?

"[Time Columns] has a fascination with looping guitar riffs on top of each other to create these thick sonic textures, (they thank the Gibson Echoplex- digital looper for that) When you add live hip-hop drums and pre-recorded samples that are spot on and tight, you get these complex rhythms/melodies that take over your years" - Boom Boom Chik

Time Columns - New Dimensions Explored with Looping

"Baltimore-based band Time Columns...are the newest example of the genius that unfolds when progressive post-rock mates with tight instrumentation and calculated electronica...tapping into influences from notable post-rock staples such as Battles and Explosions in the Sky. They have been performing as Time Columns since early 2009, and have performed live all over the East Coast. Their EP, Sunriseinthesea, is the most brilliant thing I've listened to in the last couple years. Apparently there is hope for modern rock music..."
--Becca Fishbein from The Hopkins Post-- - The Hopkins Post

"Time Column`s debut, the 5-track Sunriseinthesea EP has already been looping at the non-stop regime for some hours in my headphones, and indeed, as for the whole set the better sorts of scents are brought forth after every following listen time. Two guys - Kenny Eaton and Jordan Miller - coming from Baltimore, Maryland, USA, exploiting guitars, keyboards, drums, and effect-sustained devices (moreover, Gibson Echoplex can be suggested as their third member) to conjure a mix of fusion/jazz rock, post-rock, math-rock, and classically layered progressive rock sound. No doubt, their interplay is an instrumental rock-relied synergic reflection, which does search for diverse chord compounds and complex, cadence-based realms, sometimes being "stuck" in restraint runs and even introspective hoverings, the another time, yet, blown up into the acceleration of synth-infused guitar grimaces, acquiring lots of panoramic flashlights to be brightened up and broadened into near-epic glider trips." - Recent Music Heroes

"All the way instrumental with an epic grip of muscular riffs and pedals...The end result here is more an an atypical rhythmic structures or an irregular shape of sound. Brilliant EP that everyone should get." - The Siren's Sound
