When I met the entire band for coffee at the Mandolin Café last week, they told me New Frontier Lounge owner Neil Harris - whose club has played host to the band on a number of occasions, and will do so again Friday - has made a habit out of calling the band "aggressive indie rock."
It's hard to deny this classification. The atmospheric tinkering of Westhoff's clean guitar paired with the power of Jordan's often fuzzed and crunchy axemanship - and the sonic dynamic this dance creates - gives Where Sails Meet Rails a sound worth building on - for the future.
Which is exactly what Where Sails Meet Rails - which also includes bassist Adam Zack and drummer Matt Staerk - is trying to do.
Just like Tacoma. Always.
