The Unwinding Hours debut album is for me and I’m sure many others one of the most hotly-anticipated albums of 2010. Formed from the ashes of Scottish alternative/post-rock rock band, Aerogramme.

If there was any justice in this world, January of 2009 should have been the Phantom Bands announcement to the world that they were the next big thing, instead everyone lost their heads and went crazy over the Animal Collective.
