Over the last 16 years, Ireland’s experimental cult weirdos And So I Watch You From have absorbed new ideas and pushed the boundaries of their intricate and ecstatic guitar-based compositions. Defying the laymen’s definition of post punk, post rock and post everything in between they came crashing out of the gate with the big-riff worship and arena-level melodic heroics of their eponymous debut, through to their Art Rock odyssey All Hail Bright Futures and their critically acclaimed genre defying masterpiece The Endless Shimmering. ASIWYFA have continuously introduced new spins on their original sound while simultaneously expanding their sonic palette with every new album, taking in and repurposing everything from African highlife to Irish trad to the odd ball math-rock of the late ‘90s / early ‘00s. But nothing in their repertoire comes close to the ambition and scale of their latest project—the multimedia long form ensemble piece Jettison. Conceived by And So I Watch You From Afar’s guitarist Rory Friers and brought to life by the band, orchestrator Connor O’Boyle, the Arco String Quartet, and visual artist Sam Wiehl, Jettison is a fusion of ASIWYFA’s life-affirming musical acrobatics, the sweeping grandeur of film scores, and the surreal and sublime capabilities of moving pictures.
