This is powerful, spine tingling poetry in front of great jazz. I saw Aja on a Tiny Desk Concert on Youtube. I was completely knocked out and bought this immediately.
This is almost certainly my fave Steve Roach album. Unfortunately it is (I believe) unique in his catalogue. Short, punchy electronica from the 80’s that I believe is peerless.
There are also two bonus, super long tracks at the end that are also very tasty if you want to trance out…
It took me a while to get into Boss Keloid’s groove. I knew intellectually that it was my kinda music but I didn’t take to Melted On The Inch like I thought I would. I think listening to lots of modern jazz limbered me up! This is really complicated prog rock with heavy ass guitars added for street cred. I’m so happy that anyone might consider this band cool. They’re fucking cool to me but music like this has been vilified in the past. All hail the new Gentle Giant!
This album is in the process of getting right under my skin. Its loud and angry but its also thoughtful and progressive. M.O.M. are evolving and it’s exciting to hear.
Morass of Molasses produce awesome, distinctive, sludgy metal of the highest calibre. They have become one of my favourite bands. I can’t rate them higher than that.
