If you haven't heard of Maps And Atlases before then we'd advise you jump in a pool of wet cement and wait to see what happens.

If you have however, then you'll know that their possibly one of the most talented bands going at the moment and have three consistently brilliant EP's under their belts. The bands math-rock sound has constantly reinvented itself over the course of the mini releases and a debut LP is sure to be on the horizon.

This video is of main member Dave Davison playing the song The Ongoing Horrible from their 2006 EP Tree, Swallows, Houses whilst hosting a programme for Refused TV.

It's not so much an acoustic affair as it is a man actually recreating every noise the song makes with just an acoustic guitar. It's a little too confusing to explain and a whole lot easier to watch so please, glance below at this weeks Video Of The Week and stare in awe at the sheer talent that the man so clearly possesses.
