Gates

Gates are a five-piece post-rock/indie band from New Brunswick, New Jersey that formed in 2011. Their debut full-length, Bloom And Breathe came out on Pure Noise Records, following the release of two EP's. Stylistically speaking, Gates have a lot in common with Moving Mountains. They both make heavy use of the reverb/delay-laden guitar melodies that bands like Explosions In The Sky are the father, son, and holy ghost of. In addition to that, Gates features very prominent vocals, which are often catchy and melodic. The whole "indie" aspect of them is very comparable to Lydia, who their guitarist used to play in. Random sidenote, but if you haven't heard Lydia's first two albums, listen to them, especially Illuminate. Enjoy.
