The spring rain storms in the afternoon in Denver are commonplace for us.Oftentimes ominous clouds careen the skyline and make for a stunning light show. It’s a quiet loud. One that is best described with the thunderous guitar pummeling from fellow Tejanos, Explosions in the Sky. On the latest album from the instrumental titans, EITS further drive home their insatiable taste for raw energy on “In the Wilderness.” A perfect metaphor for the delivery in last night’s show at the Ogden Theatre in night one of a two day stint. But let’s not stop on wilderness, because that would be far too limiting with the amount of hulking the quintet exercised on the small Ogden Theatre stage. At times, the Texan act executed a successful three headed monster on guitar that shredded in waves building up to an absolute tsunami. A display of pure brute force capable of slaying audiences whole. Catch the post rock behemoths on tour up until late October.
