The second album from the band who injected new life into the post-rock scene with their breathtaking debut Flares in 2005. For those unfamiliar with their debut, port-royal are anything but just another generic epic instrumental outfit; utilising subtle electronics and almost classical arrangements, they create lengthy, expansive, melancholic compositions that often have movements within the individual tracks, constantly evolving and shifting in tempo. Though Afraid To Dance follows the formula that made Flares such a success, it also displays sufficient progression to be more than just Flares pt2; though the same components are evident, the emphasis has shifted towards the electronic beats and pure rhythm that underpin their sound, bringing them to the forefront while the hypnotic spacerock guitars and synth gently weave melodies beneath.
