MP3: Logh - Forest eyes (RBG version)

Despite releasing the new "Death to my hometown" EP recently, Logh has been keeping an extremely low profile as of late. Raising families, recording other bands, living life... just a few shows here and there, but mostly keeping quiet and out of the spotlight. It's a shame, but it's not as if I don't understand -- playing in an underappreciated band takes its toll, not to mention all the various false starts, botched US releases and other annoyances the band has faced. Of course I still stand behind them 100% and am happy to restate it, even if m/label.php?show=iat006">releasing a 7" wasn't enough by itself. As for the new EP, the standout for me is not the title track/single, but the new version of "Forest eyes" which originally appears on the album "North". As with much of the band's recent material, the mood is plaintive and reserved, though this updated version adds a synth throb and a driving beat that gives it so much more oomph over the original. Still, it's the band's restraint which gives them their strength -- the more they hold back, the more gripping it is. The e-bowed guitar adds more tension, too, way more than the plainspoken arrangement on the original. There's no massive conclusion either, but the resolve feels right. Anything else would be out of character. Still one of Sweden's best bands despite the lack of drama.

MP3: Kongh - Unholy water

Swedish trio Kongh step up the game on their new album "Shadows of the shapeless" by delivering a concise, punishing record. "Concise" is a stretch actually, but when you consider how many of their ilk go for the longer=better formula, any tracks < 15 minutes stand out. Only one band can hold chords and my attention for any longer and that's Khanate and they're long gone; broke the mold and took it with 'em too. Anyhow, music that despairing is almost too painful to revisit with any frequency, so I much prefer the far more straightforward pummel of Kongh. It's slow and heavy, it's got discernible head-banging riffs, it makes me happy in a way that only the most crushing doom can. We'll see if Trust No One label bosses Switchblade can top 'em whenever their new one drops, but for now this one stands alone.
