Comment: Ratkiller is a project by Mihkel Kleis (34-year-old musician and artist from Estonia), previously known as the leader/keyboardist of the retrodelic fusion/prog rock act Luarvik Luarvik, and onward and partially at the same time he used to launch EDASI being a representative of obscure psychedelic music mixed up with the aspects of noise and black metal and lo-fi. This 9-piece album blends quite light-hearted, nostalgic fusion progressions with DIY/lo-fi tendencies (indeed, at times showcasing essentially primitivistic approach how to produce tracks). Partly such kind of music was widely produced at the time of the Moscow Olympics and the regatta in Tallinn. A fabulous and quite idiosyncratic listening by any means. Such tracks as Sword Justice, and Normal For Romans makes me feel very nostalgic.
