Comment: it has always been great fun to arrive at musical groups from Montrèal, Quebec, Canada. Maicamia is an anglophone group led by female voice. Do you remember such artists as Hrsta, Thalia Zedek? Do you remember such a group as Low? Do you remember such a group as Dream City Film Club? Do you know what will happen if to merge all these elements with each other? The result is a band called Maicamia. This is an irresistible blend of angst, angst, and once again angst. Angst is over there to get materialised and to cover a listener with a heavy and suffocating shell. With the very purpose to seal all the shit surrounding a human being. It consists of rough, slowed-down drumming as if being transmitted from a wicked rehearsal room and there are up shrill soul-stabbing guitars and enchanting chants of a female voice (by the way, the opening track is titled ironically Lambourghini Diablo). All of that is reflected on the cover either. It is possible that depression as a state of mind could be truly beautiful in art and it is a case. Holy shit. I have nothing to add to it.
