=========================================================================== The Great Dinosaur Mystery =========================================================================== Title : The Great Dinosaur Mystery Artist : Japandi Genre : Math Rock, Post-Rock Released: 2007 Japandi's "The Great Dinosaur Mystery" is an often-overlooked gem of the West Coast wave of instrumental indie/math rock. Every super clean riff on this LP is ultra tight, weaving between different guitar lines, layering on top of speedy drum fills. While some tracks can become repetitive, they never go stale, always showing off the raw skill of the group on tracks like "Clown Pleaser" and "Soccer Tease". From eclectic and sometimes nonsensical passages like the "Tips on Juicing" tracks, to the emotional and relaxed licks throughout songs like "Baby Gang", this LP is an underrated and influential math rock effort. Favorite Tracks: Clown Pleaser, Soccer Tease, Baby Gang
