Bio

Comprehending is an instrumental math-rock/post-rock band from Uppsala, Sweden. Their music takes inspiration from bands such as Via Luna, Delta Sleep and TTNG ranging from soft mathy guitar and drum riffs to big atmosperic reverb saturated crescendos. The band formed in 2019 as a bedroom project by guitarist John Pettersson and soon released a line of singles. In 2023 Andreas Valdna joined as a full time member of the band after having filled in on drums for live shows which led to the band now being a two-piece. The band released their first full lenght album called "The Perils And Rewards Of An Unknown Path" on August 27th 2025, including the recently released singles “Flourish”, “A Sense of Hope” and ‘Ventured Paths’.

“The song (Flourish) starts out icy and sweet, but eventually transitions from picky, midwest-flavored math rock to crushing post-rock that takes our minds to bands like Caspian and sleepmakeswaves.” - Michael Whiteside
