As we found out in a 2016 Isthmus interview, Tiny Moving Parts’ resident guitar wizard Dylan Mattheisen is an endlessly positive person. That’s a bit of a surprise because Tiny Moving Parts’ brand of emo punk is pretty aggressive, marked by Mattheisen’s kinetic guitar work and the unrelenting wallop of the band’s rhythm section (who happen to be Mattheisen’s cousins). It’s screamo delivered with a smile. The Benson, Minnesota, trio’s latest LP, Breathe, was released in September. Also on board is Illinois power-pop project fredo disco, and Standards.
