What makes Pyramid of the Sun by Maserati notable?

The album received significant acclaim from critics, with publications like Pitchfork praising its intricate soundscapes and emotional depth. It solidified Maserati's position in the post-rock scene and contributed to a renewed interest in instrumental rock music during the late 2000s and early 2010s. When 'Pyramid of the Sun' was released in 2010, Maserati was navigating a resurgence following the death of founding member Jerry Fuchs. This album marked their return after a five-year hiatus since their previous album, 'Inventions for the New Season,' showcasing their evolution within the post-rock genre while honoring Fuchs' legacy.
