I am on my second listen through the songs right now and am impressed by the difference between the first and second groupings...and it's a welcome thing. The first album was wild and expansive, taking you on a raucous ride through various soundscapes and emotions. It was exciting, but, at times, a bit tiring just to keep up. And while the songs in this second group definitely keep the ride going, they do so in a much more collected way...with a much more driven force behind them. Where you were being pulled wildly behind in the last release, this finds you in the drivers seat, pushed by the beats and rhythms, unsure where you are going, but continuing with fervor nonetheless.
Where you were sometimes gasping for breath within the unpredictable waves of "Dukkha", this new album still finds you breathless, but do to being at the fore-front of a relentless push rather than trying to catch up.
Check out their new releases now...and make sure to check out the fantastic first release "Dukkha" below!
