Jesse: It’s been a few years since I’ve been blown away by an album’s sheer ballsiness, but I can’t stop spinning Capillary Action‘s new album, So Embarassing Hailing from Philadelphia, PA (and many other places), the group defies definition: metal riffs give way to traditionalist free jazz, soaring melodies topple down onto absurdist freak out moments layered on top of samba beats. Phil Spector-like arrangements contrast with sludge metal. And on record, they pooled in at least fifteen people to fill out their vision – strings and horns, extra guitars and keys, upright bass and auxiliary percussion. You can check out three songs on their MySpace page as well as a slew of tour dates.
