About
Don Caballero remodel every aspect of how you ever thought a song should be and brutalize everything. They are the sound of repeated blows to the upper body and face. At first listen, you might think it's metal, but there is too much control to be simply that. Entirely instrumental, Don Caballero play with furious density and precision that is frightening. The polyrhythmic drumming of Damon Che and the grueling basslines constantly seem at odds: agreeing to disagree. Dueling guitars surge and intertwine, leaving no room for even a hint of soloing. Their beguiling cunning in composition and compelling time changes make thorough listening mandatory.
