This is a really, really great band. From the very start, I am absolutely loving this. The drums on this first track are phenomenal. The guitars are beautiful, and the vocals fit perfectly. “City to city, coast to coast, truck stop to truck stop…” Oh, how those phrases remind me of beautiful movement. You need to go to Knesset’s BandCamp and listen to their album “Coming Of Age”. Even though this album has been previously blurbed about by a more eloquent and dedicated writer than myself, I feel like it deserves a full review.

This drummer is really what makes this band stand apart from the rest of the thousands of bands out there who tag themselves as “indie rock”.  Coming Of Age is ten tracks of interesting beats and melodies with plenty of hooks.

“Steady Hands” and “Raw Sounds” together really cement the bands sound into your mind before they begin to explore broader textures. “Brain Waves In Flight” is more relaxed, and is a great transitional point in the album. “Bitter Hearts” continues in the same style.

“San Francisco” is the shortest track on the album, but it’s beautiful. If it were longer, it would lose a huge part of that beauty.

“Finisher” is my favorite on the album. It seems to be the most emotional to me, and it’s also got some of the most interesting sounds. It builds.

“Summer Sun”, “Tell Me All Your Lies”, and “Make Like A Parade” are all strong, upbeat songs, and the “Mother” finishes of the album wonderfully broken down and then rebuilt. This is definitely an album you need to hear.
