Gregor Samsa are a Post-Rock band that began in Richmond, VA in early 2000. The band made a big impact on the genre through their use of haunting co-ed vocals and expansive dark melodies. Gregor Samsa are masters at building tension in their music through use of atmospheric minimalism that slowly climbs to a crescendo of layered instruments and noise. Their sound is perfectly woven into songs that are beautiful and powerful.

The band came up alongside artists like Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions In The Sky, and ISIS, the later two having done tours with Gregor Samsa. They would later prove to be a hugely influential band in the genre with numerous US and European Tours in the early 00s. They released two Eps on Iodine Recordings, which were denoted by only their time signatures (18:06 and 27:36), and two full lengths on The Kora Records (55:12 and REST). They also notably released a split EP with Los Angeles’ Red Sparowes on Robotic Empire Records. The band eventually migrated to Brooklyn, NY where they became somewhat of a collective organization with building a cohort of over a dozen musicians, including several members of the avant-garde metal band Kayo Dot.

On vinyl for the first time in over 23 years, 40:13.5 features Gregor Samsa’s first 2 EPs. Completely remastered by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, King Woman) with updated artwork.

"Gregor Samsa features many of the stronger characteristics of vocal post-rock: hushed beauty, dark, dense melodies, and soft, co-ed vocals. They excel at building tension through a use of negative space.” - Pitchfork

Replaced wedding band after 43 years
Gem Type: No Gemstone, Ring Size: 10
I am thrilled with this ring. After 43 years, due to arthritis and aging my knuckles were too swollen for my original band. This is a very pretty, sturdy, detailed ring. I have received many compliments and I am well pleased with the quality. It was also on time, well packaged and a notice was sent of it's arrival. Very nice. Highly recommend.

Not a ring you want to do hard dirty work in. Worth taking care of
Gem Type: No Gemstone, Ring Size: 8
I had mixed feelings when I got it. It is very lite weight. Next to my other gold jewelry it looked like a different color. It is 18k tho and my others are 14k.$300. To me ain't cheap. I have wanted this ring for along time. I started to send it back. Hubby talked me into keeping it. I got a size 8 so I could wear it on my thumb or middle finger. I have arthritis in my hands so rings fitting is a challenge. Some days I can wear them, others I can't. This ring is beautiful and being lite weight is a plus when your fingers hurt. So glad I kept it.

Order one size up
Gem Type: No Gemstone, Ring Size: 8
This is a beautiful ring. I would suggest ordering one six up from your normal ring size because it is a wide band. I had bought the bracelet a year ago and wore it everyday never took it off and the links slowly started breaking and separating to the point I just traded it in for the Wright of the gold. I hope it does not happen with this ring. I think it’s made with hollow gold and it is soft. It is a very light but comfortable band. I don’t always like to wear my diamond ring because I don’t want to loose any stones. This is good for casual everyday wear.
