Built to Spill are one of the most endearing and enduring rock bands of its generation and 'Untethered Moon' is their eighth studio album. Doug Martsch has been writing and recording music for 25 years, while his fellow BTS members have all been musicians for at least two decades. Martsch's strong work aesthetic combined with each band members' rich experience creates a fascinating aural topography, with Martsch setting course and navigating and each member coming to the music with a different set of expectations and ideals.
