And when they leave for a minute the track's main theme, enter the guitar with its freaky playing and the distorted keyboards. There were some spices you didn't recognize. The music is weird, but not too weird for the average progger, and there is only a moderate amount of focus put on technical skill. There are a few nods towards Magma, but as ever Koenjihyakkei have their own take on Zeuhl. This album is insane. This is not a bad thing. The relative simplicity and clarity of this track is on a par with Christian Vander's Wurdah Itah, although the arrangement is slightly more fleshed out.

Distorted and dance-y math rock from Oakland's Club Night.
It just goes to show how involved one might be when listening to music and how this particular album can affect you while listening to it. The flow and intensity remains fairly constant despite several detours for solos fuzz guitar and worded vocal passages all band members participate in MAGMA-like chorus-style vocal passages.

There were some spices you didn't recognize. If you like Koenji Hyakkei, you may also like: While the rhythm section solos, the vocalists scream and shout in some discordant orgy that undermines what the other musicians are doing. Wild and eccentric vocals combine with often colorful instrumental combinations that may initially leave you perplexed. In the end it feels like purely improvisation and that the musicians had no idea what they wanted to do before writing this.

Furthermore, some of the music is just plain catchy although you'll never be able to convince a pop music listener of this ; Quievem Vrastorr gets stuck in my head for hours after listening.
But the Japanese translation was made with a near-lethal jolt of added voltage: Vocals are the dominant instruments here, with everyone getting in their chops, but all of them overshadowed by shiss;a soaring and angelic though usually strident vocals of Yamamoto Kyoko. There is also a bit less of the throbbing repetition that I associate with Magma, and I appreciate that.
Rhythm per se does not seem to be a priority for this type of music. This builds with other voices and instruments added to build each layer until 5: Fun, technically impressive, and incredibly insane, but no masterpiece. It's just that they have been "put backwards" in the mixing and they are not given the chance to impress the sisspa as they could have, had they been given the opportunity to do so.
How do you possible challenge yourself now? The woman's voice easing up through the piano makes me wince- it's like preparing for a very painful shot from a physician. Then you have the tracks that seem to mingle those two approaches Zeuhl and Avant-garde like the title track Angherr Shisspa.
The vocals are a big turnoff for a lot of listeners, as they're not exactly the most conventional in the world. The musicianship is top notch, suisspa much tighter than the looser 70's jazz ethic as well. On other tracks they seem to go insane like on track 6 - Mibingvahre. Purchasable with gift card.

Several times at the end of this album, I felt a bit drained out of power, as if merely listening to the album dhisspa its toll on your energy levels. If anything there is a more overt jazz influence here, but it's very much in keeping with the album as a whole.
After some months or eons, your brain is actually comfortable with the style.
They do a very good job and you should concentrate on their part when listening to this album. In the second minute there are two instances of loosening of the tight grip of organized tapestry before the song shifts in the third minute to something more smooth and flowing, less multi-layered.
The Dublin trio melds post-rock and angherrr, adding electronic touches, for a signature sound that's energetic, spacious, and resonant.
Pretty much from the first few suspenseful notes on 'Tziidall Raszhisst' you sense you're in for a bit of an ear-bashing. I enjoy this quite a bit, but often the "weirdness" is just too much for me.
This album is insane.
It seems to me as a free-from style of playing with brilliant moves. I have to say that if I had heard this album or anything like it twenty or thirty anghefr ago I would have kept moving and not made eye contact.
Honestly, I haven't the slightest idea of how they got here. She gave me the dirty look I expected, God forbid she had to look away from Facebook for two seconds.
