KGLW continue their run as best psychedelic band going, putting out their 4th (!) album of the year (the second great one). If they're trying to outrun the expiration on some kind of deal with the devil, they're getting their souls' worth.
Polygondwanaland's sound matches its title, it's a meandering, bewildering, some hybrid of their Microtonal strangeness and Murder of the Universe's existential post-body horror, with a sinister synth serpent lurking in the reeds. A few of these riffs and rhythms are starting to sound familiar, but it feels like a callback, another thread running through some shapeshifting tapestry that feels like it'll go on forever.
People are slowly catching on. Let's reconvene in 20 years and check in on this prediction: these guys are going to be _the cult rock band of the 10's 4/5

OK, you've posted about these guys a few times... I'll give this a listen.
ReplyDeleteAnd wtf, Wikipedia says they have announced they'll have 5 albums THIS YEAR?
So, I guess look for a new release in the next 20 days.
I mean, part of why I post about these guys so much is they're prolific as hell
ReplyDeleteBut I also think they're super great - check out Nonagon Infinity for most straightforwardly rocking set they've done, but Murder of the Universe is the most demanding//rewarding
