Bailter Space

Solar 3

Turnbuckle

Fasten your webbing, as we are about to cross the forbidden barrier and enter the realm where light only travels at handful of miles an hour, and a sharp push on the spaceship’s aft will propel us through stars and clusters in less than the blink of an eye. Bailter Space’s brand of sinusoidal rock is the perfect soundtrack for that trans-galactic cruise, or the long dark drive after a show, where you need something to place your mind and the wavering of the terrain in sync. As the guitars fuzz, the notes clash (sometimes slightly, sometimes deeply), and the vocals calmly hum, you begin to feel time’s dilation.
