Torrent description
Ptarmigan is a modern post-rock band the formed in Columbia, Missouri in 2007. Evan Walton, Peter Marting, and Ted Carstensen create intricate, powerful explosions from simple folk roots and catchy melodies over levels of ambiance.
Themes of isolation and vulnerability in the songwriting are accompanied by imagery of exotic, desolate scenery. But that’s not to say this is an album of particular loneliness - instead - the sights and senses experienced in nature provide a comforting connection to all those before who’d seen the same sights and breathed the same air. “Barely standing by the north sea my ancient friends are all waking up” Walton writes in “Lord Who Built This House.”
