They’re quite talented as well, often employing jazz-ier techniques in the song structures and also in the riffs themselves. These musicians are focused on getting you to bang your head and tap your toes with a constant goal of simply rocking out. One might initially guess we’re discussing an Animals As Leaders rip-off, but that turns out to not be the case at all. They’ve got the quality tunes to back it up, so here we are!ĭegressive Fusion is a math-core / jazz / instrumental / rock-n-roll good time. It was sincere, friendly, and funny which made a great impression. So let me do the investigating for you and recommend two progressive acts, both heavy in completely different ways:Įarlier this month a Czech band called Fox Territory “hand-delivered” some promotional materials to the blog (essentially introducing themselves and recommending somebody check out their music). The bands which fall under the “progressive” category tend to catch my ear right away, but there are a ton of different sub-genres underneath this umbrella, and therefore a million bands to investigate. It’s best not to stray too far from the herd, and so progressive rock is a pretty safe bet (minus Dream Theater). The band is heading for an extensive Finnish tour in February, and live appearances abroad are to be expected as well.I occasionally branch out and find good music outside of the heavy metal category. Sometimes it’s good and sometimes it’s not. “Juho shared our vision of how the album should sound”, comments guitarist Niko Lehdontie, “but he also gave us a much needed outside view of the proceedings.” Svart Records is set to release both Ruination and the group’s first album Ujubasajuba on February 3, 2017, on CD/2LP/Digital. ‘Ruination’ was recorded in the summer of 2016 at Tonehaven Studios producer Juho Vanhanen (Oranssi Pazuzu, Grave Pleasures) at the helm and Tom Brooke recording and mixing. On Ruination the curiously named quartet heads further, beyond the point of no return, into their own world of sound, where power chords, arpeggios and quirky vocal harmonies flow. Though often bundled with the shoegazer movement, Kairon IRSE!’s music has since the beginning been a rare bird inside the scene: it rings out with a different tone, and already on the first album the influence of classic progressive rock was evident.
Whereas the debut album was largely born out of improvisation and jam sessions, Ruination is the fruit of two years of careful composing and arranging work, taking control of the chaos. The band describe their music as an appreciation of the ideas and overall mentality of experimental pop musicians of the 60s and 70s, combined with a modern approach and original musical vision. Titled ‘Ruination’, the album will be released by Svart Records in February 2017 on CD, double LP and digital. Since then the band has performed at various large festivals and meticulously written the new album. Despite the lack of a physical release the album found itself on many a best albums of the year -list in 2014. Debut album Ujubasajuba already knocked the planet off its orbit, even though it was done as a DIY Bandcamp release. Progressive shoegazing? Music of the outer spheres? An irrevocably mentally unstable Gentle Giant and a severely alcoholic Todd Rundgren having a love child which, after being adopted to Russia, finds himself performing a rock opera in the Ural Mountains? It is typical of the human mind to try and classify things, but when confronted with Kairon IRSE!, many are at a loss for words.īehind the moniker Kairon IRSE! there are four inner space travelers from western Finland.
