[atlantaprog] Fwd: Circle (from finland) tonight at Drunken Unicorn

I have heard nothing but good things about Circle! Some of you should REALLY try and make it. I think they're going to be one of those acts that, years from now, you'll be proud to say you saw them way back when...

And BTW, most of you should be spanked for missing The Dirty Projectors at Eyedrum this past Monday. Some of ya'll bemoan the death of prog, but I'm hear to tell you it's alive and well - but most of the "prog" community are so insular, they're missing out on it!

WEDNESDAY MARCH 14 at DRUNKEN UNICORN
Circle (from Finland)
Cul De Sac
all ages
9pm
$8

Born in the bucolic city of Pori, Finland, Circle has been defying expectations since 1991. This unpredictable ensemble led by Jussi Lehtisalo has been reinventing, refining and perfecting its technical drones and heavy riffs over the course of numerous European, American and Japanese releases. The band effortlessly devours and personalizes skewed progressive-rock rhythms, distorted guitar firepower, cosmic sound paintings, gleaming minimalism, Kraut-influenced phrase repetition, and hymnal incantations written in a made-up language called Meronian. Circles instantly recognizable albums and frantic live sets have garnered ample international praise while masterfully exploring the outer limits of grinding tension and celestial calm.
