4.5 superbDarkNoctus | April 8th 21

kauan albums used to have a habit of losing steam as they went but this one genuinely gets better as it goes. 'ote' is a fucking stunner of a track and works so nicely with closing track 'hauta' - and is perhaps the best closing they've had in a record yet. though i think their last record is better, this is definitely at the same level as 'pirut' and 'sorni nai' - which is to say it's stunning.

1.5 very poorYellowVoid | April 22nd 21

Oh, god. Here we go again with the fake
prescription eyeglasses and 100% organic hand-
knitted wool beanie in 90 degree weather
"metal" that I "just don't get". If I want an
album to fall asleep too, I'll throw on some
Liquid Mind. But don't dick around with
ethereal guitar pedals, synths and hang around
P&W chord voicings, and act like this album is
the second coming of Jesus Christ.

3.5 greatChino smoking it up! | April 15th 21

Jamming this more than expected. Back half is beyond gorgeous.

3.5 greatdidnt ask to be staff, was made staff anyway, then got demoted for not doing staff stuff | April 28th 21

Kauan do as Kauan are and what Kauan are is a skilled group of craftsmen that know how to build a pretty picture with sound. As always. And as always they make doom and post-metal appealing to the lovesick emo kids.

3.2 goodErwann S. EMERITUS | April 13th 21

Never listened to these guys before, but their blend of post-rock/metal with some bm shrieks works quite well - when the vocals come in and there is an increased focus on dynamics. During moments like that, like on "Maanpako", or when the vocals come in during the closer, it slaps, whereas the most melodic segments, while pretty, fail to invoke as much imagery as the more dynamic parts.

Bump

3.0 goodAnEpicDeath | April 12th 21

Album will probably grow on me considering how much I grew to love Sorni Nai and Kaiho. Weak first impression, though.

Bump

3.0 goodGary STAFF | April 12th 21

Good album, but I didn't feel entirely hooked by it. (Despite the fact I loved the firt two singles, but sadly they've already unveiled their best shots with 'em.) To be honest, I think I'd be more excited about the RPG book they released with this one.
