Spacelab Weekend: Tortoise Interview (Streaming Music)

Tortoise are a band that cross many styles, genres and influences; from post-rock to jazz to indie rock and more. The Chicago-based band makes interesting music that some call "difficult" to listen to, after more listening one finds rewarding music that's opposite of pop music -- instead of instantly latching on to the sound only to have it become stale after a few listens, Tortoise becomes more interesting with each listen. Check out an interview with members of the band set amongst their music.
