2 stars Onto the next! And despite what Wikipedia suggests, according to ProgArchives, and technically so, their third studio album, [Nekropsi] 1998, appears to be not a reissue of Mi Kubbesi, but some kind of compilation of alternative versions of previous material. These tracks are from both their first and second albums, along with apparently previously unreleased material. For me personally--and for this analogy to work, "me" is an alternative version of myself in which I have Dissociative Identity Disorder--the jury is still out on Nekropsi... [Please tell me if this is in some fashion ableist, seriously.]

If one thing can be said for Nekropsi, it is their willingness to explore various, more unusual time signatures and complex rhythms. With "Harf Devrimi 1998", they are also apt to mix these progressive ideas with, as I've tried to explain before, a trance-like, electronic thing; the use of samples, for instance, and the more or less hypnotic songs that they tend to come up with lend to this notion. The bass on "Kusmuk" sounds like a pig, or something haha. Some interesting ideas here, but it's just a little too not it. "14" explores some more interest. The guitar clangs and the bass thumps. The drums on "Mecidiyekoy" remind me of Drum 'N' Bass. Thus far, there are a lot better, more fleshed out ideas on this record [but still only by a hair, and only, mostly, in this first half].

"EBO 1998" begins with a drone. There are some pretty cool harmonizing guitars that buzz about as the song builds. Again, interesting ideas, but the songs are just half there for me. "Heidi"... hmmm. Nothing to say on it. "Dusuk Amper" has a sort of Claypool-esque bass-pop. The quirky sample they use throughout the entire damn thing is just plain annoying though... Not it, goi. "AVL Kisa" brings us back into a dreamy hypnosis. This is the most something we've gotten from this album thus far. Cool guitar riffs, and a relatively interesting composition, front to back. "Baglama 1998" just drones on and on with the same chord and distant (maybe?) voices. I don't know, really. "Ateis 1998" is yet another sample-heavy number. And finally, we have "Crying Game 1998" with beefy, yet low rhythms and eerie clangings on the guitar. Decent.

Again, the jury is still out. I'm not quite sure what the appeal is.
