KINDHEIT

AVARUUSKORPRAALI PAHA HIRVI were already known as a 'masked' electropsych project who were active at studios or live venues around Finland in late 2000s. Sadly they say they have been under hibernation since October 2015 (Goes ABBA Gig at O'Hara's) but what a pleasure ... They announced via Bandcamp they re-released their sold-out debut album "Kindheit" sold only at the gig held on April 17, 2007 (only 20 handmade copies!). Without any time to breathe, I jumped at their Bandcamp in order to purchase it because I love their second album "Yöhoitajan Maailmasta" launched two years after their studio-based debut. "Yöhoitajan Maailmasta" is a kind of authentic space rock stuff but this "Kindheit", featuring touchy but devastated full-fledged electronika, is another mystery slightly different from the following creation. Guess their early musical style on stage would have been like that, and it's interesting really.

This album is divided into six "Untitled" pieces. The departure consists of greatly eccentric electronic vibes and ethnic spiritual tips especially in the mid term. Such a quirky noisy electro-spelling reminds me of the similar vein to Kluster's "Klopfzeichen". Lengthy synthesizer-oriented queues of sounds and tones are atmospherically offensive and bombastic but appropriate for the opening of their stage performance, I imagine. The following step sounds more of rock due to percussive appearances filled with tribal hints on the whole. Repetitive melodic phrases through an electric guitar is also comfortable. Dissonant and dissected are the electronic expressions on the basis though. Such an unbalanced combination is not bad. And "3" is compiled with exaggerated electronic operations subsequent to the prologue. Irrelevant spacey laser beams are discharged here and there like a discotique balcony. On the contrary, "4" and "6" are quite heavy rock-ish movements like "Avaruus, Avaruus" in "Yöhoitajan Maailmasta". The texture in the heavy masterpieces is just the reason they are called as a brilliant space rock ambassador unit in Tampere. Of course, excessive electronic emulations can be heard deeply in the heavy psychedelia. Such a performance would have been their characteristic in those days.

Anyway in the longest (master)piece "5" they launch uptempo but settled, stabilized, improvised spacey explanations after quiet resilient ambience in the beginning ... I'm sure this decent strict touch could extend to their final musical goal.
