Flies Are Spies From Hell are an English post-rock band known for their intricate mix of piano-led melodies, powerful guitar work, and dynamic drums. Emerging in the early 2000s, they have carved out a unique space in the instrumental rock scene with their emotive and cinematic soundscapes. Their music often forgoes vocals, allowing the rich instrumentals to convey the depth and nuance of their compositions. The band's evocative name hints at the tension and drama inherent in their tracks, which are as likely to inspire introspection as they are to compel head-nodding appreciation from their listeners.

Their most recent album, "Final Quiet," released in 2020, serves as a testament to their evolution and continued relevance in the genre. It showcases their adeptness at blending atmosphere with intensity, offering a reflective experience that resonates with fans. The "Underdog Undone (Ambient Remixes)" provides an alternative, more subdued interpretation of their work, while "Underdog Underfoot," which came out in 2016, captures the raw energy and thoughtful composition the band is celebrated for. Earlier releases like "Nerves Still Beating EP" and "Red Eyes Unravelling" have been instrumental in establishing and solidifying Flies Are Spies From Hell's reputation as craftsmen of beautifully melancholic and compelling instrumental music.
