The Signal Hill / North End split started as a Northeast US tour in March 2020. The tour was abruptly cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and both bands decided to continue collaborating in a different way. Winnebago Drive by Signal Hill is a melodic, mid tempo instrumental rock song. Grounded in continuous rhythm, the song takes the listener on a drive through times passed and places missed. With the band located in various cities, the song is yet another transatlantic collaboration, written and recorded in LA, New York and London. Cabra is North End’s first studio recorded track in over three years. Influenced by math and post rock, Cabra echos North End 2013 EP, “Cognoscere”, combined with elements that reflect the groups future sound. The album art by Rishi Neal Arora pin-points the locations of North End and signal hill band members, spread across Los Angeles, London, Denver, Philadelphia and New York City. The sphere has no geographic designations, like land or water, to show physical distance not impeding the band's ability to release the split. The split will be released through Better Looking Records, the indie label known for its releases from Tristeza and The Album Leaf among others.

Showcasing some of SH's earliest work, where there are slightly more flutters of Explosions In the Sky-like stress-and-storm, but their stellar version of hyper-talented sedulous-prog-post-rock is still indelibly marked on this release. I recommend all of their releases, but these early ones are especially gripping and cathartic. Beautifully pressed as well! brantly
Anyone homesick for the classic sound of ’90s math rock will fall in love with the jagged guitars & tricky tempos on “LLC.” Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 6, 2023

The melodies on this album are hypnotic and have an elegance of movement that I find utterly captivating. “More After We’re Gone” is a timely reminder of how passionately energetic post-rock music can be. Theirs is music that feeds my soul & rewards my attention. I thank Signal Hill for making it. thomas mathie
