“It’s not often a release comes along that knocks you for six and leaves you scampering for words to use to explain what you have just heard. Yes, you may hear a great album and you find yourself with reams of interesting insights to fill up the space. Sometimes you get something that is good, but essentially non-descript and so you struggle to put into words any reasoning for your feeling. Then you get something like this, a split record featuring Isaak and Mos Generator that just leaves you so utterly confounded all you can utter is brilliant, just brilliant.
Try we must though and it seems that once again it is a split that is making all the waves again this year. Both Isaak and Mos Generator have been around and have garnered critical acclaim in their respective areas, and both are forward thinking bands that constantly look to evolve. One is ensconced in doom, the other has a more psych feel.
Casting labels is unfair here though as there is nothing straightforward about both these tracks. Each heads towards the twenty minute mark with more ideas between them than an entire collection of Pink Floyd albums. Each plays with their sound and becomes something much more substantial. Each leaves you completely breathless.
Isaak’s ‘The Choice’ is a slow burner of an epic. Quietly building up into a cacophonous roar, it is guided by familiar sampled voices bringing in a great counter culture feel to it. At times similar to Kowalski era Primal Scream, there is an altogether more heavier edge to their sound and when the full on stoner rock riffs start you may as well reach for manna.
Mos Generator on the other hand take a much more lively approach and throughout the entire track a feeling of celebration, albeit one if dionysian madness, takes place. Drifting between full on space rock and 70s funk there is a great dichotomy at work which on paper should fall apart but in reality is simply stunning. It’s a close call between the two tracks here but this one just edges it.
So there we are, we stumbled through and found some words to say. It’s all ultimately fluff though and all that remains to be said is it’s brilliant, just brilliant.“ Review by Martyn Coppack ()
If you are a band member or are involved with this record and don’t want people to see/hear this, please contact me via comments or Google message and I’ll remove it. There’s no need for flags.
I do not own any copyright nor have anything to do with the band or their label. Just spreading their music/job.
