Comment:
the Brazilian trio of Ricardo Cezario, Alexandre Palàcio, and Vitor Martins
used to play quite straightforward yet impressive rock music which purpose is
to conjure up powerful chords from their basses, drums and guitars, cross them
deliberately and then lay off something special from the mix. There is also
another possibility to understand the Brazilian trio’s music. Their 7-track
(clocking in at a 37 minute) album might be limited with a certain amount of
chord combinations for to get shuffled with each other endlessly until the
issue will be over. In that sense their aesthetic could loosely be considered a
part of minimalism though played with the usual combination of the instruments
in rock music. However, the listener could discover new shades and penumbras to
be added with each new track. I like the idea that spawned in my head while
listening to their longest track called Metropolis that the trio started
off from a muddy, bedimmed soil to rave up their inner engines and then raise
to heaven with a monumental trajectory. Last not least – how many cows are
depicted on the cover print? The issue is a part of the discography of the
Brazilian imprint Sinewave whose grateful purpose over the years has been to
release new abrasive rock, noise and metal music from their country. NB! Today
will come in Walpurgis Night so it is highly suitable to listen to this issue
either. Hail to all witches
