Our Take

Album Review: DARK Catalogue Raisonne: Vol. 5: Mk.Iv Cellar Rehearsals

As I settled down to listen to DARK's latest release, I couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. This enigmatic group has been a staple in the experimental music scene for years, and their latest offering promised to be nothing short of mind-bending.

From the opening track, "Echoes of the Abyss," it was clear that DARK was taking listeners on a sonic journey unlike anything they had experienced before. The swirling synths and haunting vocals created an atmosphere that was equal parts eerie and exhilarating.

But it was on tracks like "Midnight Rituals" and "The Blackened Mirror" that DARK truly shined. The intricate layers of sound and the subtle shifts in tone kept me on the edge of my seat, unsure of what to expect next. It was like being trapped in a dark, twisted fairy tale – and I loved every minute of it.

Of course, DARK's signature blend of electronic and industrial influences was present throughout the album, but there was something new and exciting in the mix. It was as if the group had tapped into a whole new level of creativity, pushing the boundaries of their sound to thrilling new heights.

In the end, DARK's latest offering is a testament to their boundless imagination and innovative spirit. With DARK Catalogue Raisonne: Vol. 5: Mk.Iv Cellar Rehearsals, the group has once again proven why they are one of the most exciting acts in experimental music today. Don't miss out on this mesmerising journey into the unknown.

About the artist

Seasick Steve

Ah, Seasick Steve - the one-man blues phenomenon who's been stirring up stormy waters in the music industry for over two decades now. With his grizzled beard, weather-beaten face, and a penchant for playing guitars made out of cigar boxes and hubcaps, Steve has become somewhat of a mythical figure in the world of blues music. Born Steven Gene Wold in Oakland, California, Steve spent many years drifting around the globe, working odd jobs and honing his craft as a musician before finally settling in Norway, where he recorded his debut album "Cheap" in 2004. From there, it was a slow and steady rise to fame, with each subsequent release solidifying his status as a true original in the world of blues. What sets Seasick Steve apart from his contemporaries is his sheer passion for the music he plays. Each note, each twang of the guitar is infused with a raw, unbridled energy that is impossible to ignore. Whether he's playing in front of a crowd of thousands or just jamming on his porch, Steve brings a level of authenticity to his music that is simply unmatched. And let's not forget his distinctive gravelly voice, which is as rough and weathered as the seas he sings about. It's a voice that speaks of hard times and struggle, of love lost and dreams deferred. In short, it's the voice of a true bluesman, and it's what makes Seasick Steve such a compelling and captivating performer. So, if you're looking for some down-home, honest-to-goodness blues music that's guaranteed to soothe your soul and get your feet tapping, look no further than Seasick Steve. Just be sure to bring a bottle of whisky and a pack of cigarettes - you're going to need them.
