HELL YES, because you get to see Pylon.
PYLON!
FOR FREE!

This album is good. Real good. Cryptograms was okay enough...a little too pretentious in spots, but Microcastle blows me away. Very melodic without sounding sappy or trite; interesting arrangements without resorting to uber-cerebral nonsense...it moves me, man. And the noise, that glorious, soaring noise. So good.
Can't wait to see them in a few weeks.

Yeah, Microcastle is really great. Plus, the bonus disc is fun too. I also like the EP they released about a year back. Still haven't clicked with Crypto.

I recently saw them live. Having only heard Cryptograms prior, I now have a solid respect for them as a live band. Not sure about the records though.

They sound like a late 80s psych influenced band in that their music is 20 years too late but it's good enough to not be called crap for sure. Right in the middle.
