About A Band Called About:

 

I was sent a preview of About:'s first release "Dukkha" and was really blown away. It's a rare thing for me to listen to four songs for a period of eight hours. And no, each song was not two hours long.

An interesting mix of folk, electronic, psychedelia, and ambient/ethereal tunes, each song takes you on a very different voyage through a rather unknown musical landscape. Though you can definitely hear hints of influences like Bjork, Pink floyd, and even some more classic rock sounding drums and guitar, About: seems to build it's songs through a process of discovery, allowing each to meander, build, fall and layer before you reach the conclusion. The listener follows along, sometimes frantically searching for imminent danger, sometimes pulled along by the gentle current, always effortlessly led by the changing tunes, beats and rhythms that intertwine throughout each track. Each song plays out a storyline of changing beats, shifting rhythms and ebbing moods to a level some entire albums don't reach, providing a very saturated and thorough investigation of the work presented.

Take a look and make sure to keep checking in for more updates and releases.
