The Wind-Up Bird exist somewhere between Dirty Three and Godspeed You Black Emperor. They create beautiful and sparse compositions that overtake you. Both records are highly recommended.

Did you know that one of this band's two original members--not sure if he's still in the band--was the bassist/singer for the CT band Jerome's Dream? We used to chat online a lot and started getting into quieter music around the same time (1998-99) and when I heard this band's first three-song demo I was floored. So good! The Jerome's Dream stuff is great, too. I had it on my old hard drive but unfortunately lost it earlier this summer, so it's only on vinyl now...
I had heard that there was a member of JD in the band but wasn't sure if it's true. JD was such a great band. I even liked that full length where the singer sounded like an old time gangster :)
