Toronto's
Do Make Say Think
(Justin Small on guitar and Jason MacKenzie on keyboards)
are an instrumental post-rock combo.
They imbued
Do Make Say Think (Constellation, 1998)
and
Goodbye Enemy Airship the Landlord Is Dead (2000)
with irregular flows of electronic, electric and acoustic sounds,
yielding a
fragile hybrid of free jazz, psychedelic dub,
Canterbury-style spleen
and progressive-rock,
and occasionally sounding like a subdued, weak version of
Godspeed You Black Emperor.
& Yet & Yet (2002), the first album without MacKenzie,
sounded
at the same time brainy and soothing, but indulged in the method
without caring enough for the message, and therefore resulted
largely devoid of content.
The sprawling
Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn (Constellation, 2006), structured
as a set of three-movement suites, achieved a quiet grandeur of aural depth.
The much simpler
You, You're A History In Rust (Constellation, 2007), featuring even
two songs,
sounded like a transitional work, standing between their progressive
instrumental past and a future of song-oriented concepts.
The real protagonists of the music were, perhaps, the production details that
turn each song into a sonic puzzle.
