The post-rock stylings of Tortoise are a perfect fit for Pitchfork's Don't Look Down, because some of their best songs sound like soundtracks to moving cities. The Chicago band rock out to "Gigantes," the centerpiece to their sixth album, Beacons of Ancestorship. Check that dude with the electronic pseudo-xylophone. He can really wail.
Beacons of Ancestorship is out now via Thrill Jockey. [Pitchfork]
