KAKAOKAMKAMI

First of all, music on this EP can be placed under Post-Rock tag only formally. In fact, they play much wider collection of genres, but all components are perfectly melted in one ( quite hot ) mix. Even in such a short release, as this 6 songs long EP, open ear listener will find plenty of musical sounds and ideas. Starting from very characteristic Nordic dreamy atmospheric post-rock piece (influenced by Sigur Ros, etc), but with some warmer Slavic soul injected sounds in it, this album will show guitar/strings melodic attacks, electronic noices, ambient soundscapes, very melancholic violin sound. And all these - in very fresh and melodic, but never cheese frames.

After very first listening I realize, that I like this vintage keyboards, complex compositions, warm but dynamic strings, freshness of all sound. Very professional musicianship. And only pity thing is I missed their concerts in Tallinn and Helsinki just to see them live. Hope still will have such chance though.

Very recommended as great example of revitalized post-rock.

Please be surprised at the first track Untitled ... effective and impressive noises and heavy fuzzy bluesy guitar sounds can jackknife our brain aggressively. And we hear such a quirky rhythm ensemble and such a depressive, warped, sharp-edged violin solo in Number 9. This massive attacks drenched with intentional tension are very drastic for us. The third, fifth, and seventh Untitled's are something tense too, full of violent noise attacks and eerie quietness. Boot Boot is, despite of the whole tensive air, a song with a spice of loose flood (plus a bulky mass of painful dins). Very fascinating we can hear various sound appearances. Until the last 'secret' Untitled with weird, bubbling, horrible ghost guitar and calm, laidback rhythm ensemble sounds, we can break out with their dogmatic and flexible soundflowergarden.

Sure they be so suitable to be called as a post-post-rock outfit. Good job.
