The Indian Tower picks up where the self titled left off. Which means you get more soulful, bluesy classic rock that to these ears seems pretty fucking unique. What I like most are the rolling rhythms and overall warmth of the songs. Whether they�re playing rollickin� numbers or acoustic songs, Pearls and Brass�s music is simply inviting. And as with their debut, the playing is stellar. The Indian Tower is a fantastic sophomore album. Pearls and Brass are a couple steps above the rest. Highly recommended.

With its serpentine riffs that take their sweet time to uncoil and its sludgy, off-kilter tempos, Pearl and Brass has no doubt learned some valuable lessons from Josh Homme's Queens of the Stone Age. By combining math-rock complexity with raw power on The Indian Tower, the songs hypnotize as they pulverize.
