Native are a four-piece post-hardcore/math rock band from Northern Indiana. They formed around 2006/2007. Since then, they've released things rather sparsely, and toured fairly frequently. Everything they've put out so far is really good, and they've got a new full-length coming out this year, which has been long-awaited. They're also a really tight live band, who I personally was really impressed by. They have this thing going on with quite complex, intricate dualling guitar parts, odd time signatures, and exploring different dynamics. Except perhaps vocally, which is usually pretty harsh and intense. Big influences on them might include These Arms Are Snakes, Maps And Atlases, Minus The Bear, and Russian Circles, maybe. Though in terms of similar sounds, contemporaries Kidcrash, The Reptilian, Caravels, Victor! Fix The Sun, Castevet/CSTVT, etc., might be better comparisons. Enjoy.
