TA TA DU

First of all, adorable album cover. In the liner notes, available on their Bandcamp page, they actually credit the "cat model", which is of course even cuter. This is the second 2018 single by Turkish band Nekropsi, released in October.

"Ta Ta Du" has a very familiar, Math Rock-adjacent sound. I mentioned Battles and And So I Watch You From Afar in a previous review for the band, but it's really in here [Man, I should listen to more Battles...]. Cool, super metallic--jangly, not heavy--riffs, with a grooving bass. Stellar drums here, too. This is such a breath of fresh air. And a little quirk goes a long way in my eyes. I like the way things morph into a more dancey feel after minute 1.
