EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: Maps & Atlases - Pigeon

As four friends who met at art school in Chicago, Maps & Atlases are perhaps more accessible than they should be. There's no absence of head-spinning instrumentation, but when you make finger-tapping sound like child's play and also gank Vampire Weekend's summer anthem rulebook, the dense art-rock suspicions fade away fast. Such is the gist of "Pigeon," a demo of sprightly, restrained prog-pop set to be re-recorded this spring for a new album in the fall. That record is currently without a label, but after the recent patch of touring with Pattern Is Movement and some lauded SXSW appearances, don't expect the "unsigned" tag to hang around for too long.

Sounds like: Vampire Weekend, Foals
