Sometimes, the algorithm rewards listeners with a band like Delta Sleep: heady and intimate yet explosive in its sonic power. Delta Sleep arguably plays in the math rock genre due to their use of obscure time signatures. In practice, however, they explore the broader currents of post-hardcore, indie and soul with tracks that feel like a cozy fireplace before erupting in a dazzle of instrumentation and energy. Since 2014, the band has regularly released albums and EPs, with its latest, Blue Garden, appearing this year. Delta Sleep is on a world tour snaking through Canada, the UK and the US.
