Distal
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Italy's Crash Of Rhinos arrived at a moment when emo and indie rock were exploring new emotional territories. Distal, released in 2012 on the boutique Triste label, shows a band unafraid of vulnerability wrapped in dense, intricate arrangements. The guitars are layered and textured, creating walls of sound that shift and breathe. Vocals carry genuine weight, conveying real emotion without resorting to melodrama. The band captures that sweet spot between accessibility and complexity—you can feel the hooks, but there's always something new to discover in the arrangements. This record has aged beautifully and has become increasingly sought after. A stunning example of modern emo-influenced rock done with intelligence and heart.
