Do Make Say Think

Nearly a decade after the release of their last album, the legendary instrumental post-rock act Do Make Say Think is back in action this year with yet another poetically named album, Stubborn Persistent Illusions (other record titles include Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn and You, You’re A History In Rust). And that means the Toronto-based five-piece is on the road, bringing more than 20 years worth of jazz-fusion tunes to cities across the world. The new record, five years in the making due to the fact that some members also play in Broken Social Scene, shows off the band's signature interlooping guitars and drums while still pushing forward to new heights.
