Retread Sessions: "A Tender History In Rust" - Do Make Say Think

So I'm wandering around the internet and obviously eventually landed myself at Pitchfork, where I found myself following an interesting article.


KUT, college radio for the lovely folks down in Austin, Texas, have this new program they've started called Retread Sessions. The idea is to film the artist performing live, in a new and strange way that provides ingenuity for the artist in their performance, and a sweet/weird/interesting form of live video performance.

They've filmed a few artists, most of which are somewhat obscure and I don't know much about (Shearwater, Black Before Red, Yacht).

But the latest Retread Sessions video is of none other than the crazy Canadian post-rockers, Do Make Say Think. Filmed in a lonely golden field of tall grass somewhere around Austin, the sensitive instrumental almost sounds country considering the locale. It's a beautiful performance, check it out.
