Last year, post-rockers Caspian released Dust and Disquiet, an album that had soft pretty parts but also towering sludge. They’re continuing to tour in support of it this fall, and opening the tour will be The Appleseed Cast, who are a huge influence on Caspian. Here’s what Caspian guitarist Phillip Jamieson says:

We actually started our band after Cal gave us a copy of their landmark record, Low Level Owl. That record changed the way we listen to and experience music and the rest for us was history. To circle back all these years later and have the opportunity to share the road with them for the first time is more than a dream come true, it feels like some kind of strange destiny. Hard to explain… Let’s just say that we have never been more excited about a single pairing in the 11 year history of Caspian, and if you make it out to one of these shows, you are going to have one of the best nights of your entire life. No hype, just real talk.

The tour hits NYC on November 17 at Music Hall of Williamsburg. Tickets for that show (and the whole tour) go on sale Friday (7/15) at noon.
