Kasper Rosa - Free MP3 of “Scaling Mount Improbable”

The Kasper Rosa boys...
Striking out from Belfast on a raft of youthful enthusiasm and with a sound built upon strong founding influences such as Fleetwood Mac and Oceansize through to Opeth and The Mars Volta; instrumental act Kasper Rosa have been moving from strength to strength since the release of their first EP. The boys have been packing-out gigs and receiving praise from their peers since their inception, so it was no surprise that they soon found themselves supporting Seattle favourites Earth at just their third ever gig, adding quickly to their growing impact on the circuit with a tour alongside English rockers Alright The Captain. All this whilst still being just a few months free of their creative womb.
The band recently performed with 65daysofstatic at Mandela Hall in Belfast and are about to release their latest offering EP2 (released July 12th via Field Records) - an intricate and epic journey that combines the best of post-rock, prog and rock, which leaves you with something undeniably addictive and beautiful.
On the eve of this release, the boys are releasing a free track from the album - "Scaling Mount Improbable". You can listen to a stream of this track HERE. Or you can download the full song, press release and pictures HERE.

Today (June 7th) sees Juniper Leaf release their debut album Broom, Briars, Torches from the Fire. The Line of Best Fit hailed the debut effort as a "a strange and often thrilling record which deserves attention."
Meanwhile, we have two single releases, both very different and equally awesome. Moneytree release their single Wake Up And Pay Your Overheads today. The 405 have an exclusive download of the single HERE along with an interview with the band.
