Band Spotlight: 6:37

6:37 was an instrumental band featuring members of Deer Leap, Early Birds, Call Her Alaska, and Our Last Night. Their sound was far more comparable to the first three of those bands. Their post-rock sound is reminiscent of the more delicate and pretty sections of bands such as Explosions in the Sky, Mogwai, Caspian, etc. The mood never gets too dark or sad, always moving with an uplifting swing, the notes bouncing and melting off the necks of their guitars. You can really hear Keith (guitarist from Deer Leap)'s influence here, as the tone and playing style is very similar to other projects he has been involved in. Sadly, all that remains of their legacy is a six song demo, but thankfully it's excellent, building and twirling until the final eleven-minute epic, "Last Song." 

Here's a Youtube video of the fifth track on the demo, "The Busy World Of Richard Scary."
