The Lymbyc Systym, a post-rock duo from Phoenix, AZ, has just released their first full-length album, Love Your Abuser on Mush Records.

The band consists of brothers Mike and Jared Bell, who recently completed a nationwide tour with the Album Leaf and Dirty on Purpose. They will now be touring in support of their new album.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing the Lymbyc Systym live show many times, and I am definitely looking forward to seeing them play at the Warehouse Next Door here in D.C. on February 28th. The Lymbyc Systym isn’t quite your traditional Mogwai-sounding post-rock band. The Bell brothers manage to put together a unique sound, coming together for a very powerful live presentation. Jimmy LaValle of the Album Leaf was a contributor on Love Your Abuser, so if you’re a fan of his this gives you all the more reason to check this band out.
