Long Distance Calling is a German post-rock band known for their expansive and instrumental approach to composition. Founded in 2006 in Münster, the group has carved out a niche within the rock and progressive music scenes with their blend of atmospheric guitar work, driving rhythms, and occasional forays into vocals or collaboration with guest musicians. Their sound often transcends the typical boundaries of post-rock, incorporating elements of ambient music, metal, and electronic sounds, which has earned them a dedicated following.

Over the years, Long Distance Calling has been recognized for their dynamic and emotionally resonant live performances, as well as their consistently ambitious studio albums. Some of their most recent work includes "Eraser" (2022), which showcases their exploration into themes of modern society and ecological concerns through their trademark instrumental storytelling. This album builds on the success of their 2020 release "How Do We Want to Live?" which continued their examination of human experience within the context of a rapidly changing world. With tracks like "Giants Leaving," "Kamilah" and "Ghost," the band continues to evolve their sound, pushing the limits of the post-rock genre and ensuring their music remains engaging and thought-provoking for listeners.
