The self titled
Niechęć had really blown me away and I can't be satisfied with the relative lack of hype for the modern jazz heroes. The style is contemporary and totally original with a curtain of futuristic free jazz wrapped around massive walls of audio. Never straying too far from a highly consistent overall atmosphere yet still shuffling through disparate territories like kraut/post/noise rock and chaotic jazz freaks, yet it's always 100% compelling and impossibly replayable.
Helium Horse Fly

HHF insist on taking their music to the brink even though we discover along the way that the brink is quite distant, so they're indefinitely astounding. They sound like a chamber version
Sonic Youth but not in the way
SYR4 sounds. It's still rock to the bone but its sonic array is immeasurable.
Quote:
The 6 tracks listed on Hollowed depict a surreal, grotesque universe. Strange scenes are featured, in the far reaches of what defines our humanity. The calm is deceptive, the madness latent. Noise rock imbued with contemporary classical music, major cold burns come and pierce these landscapes, leaving irreversible alterations in their wake.
An album to listen to as a unique piece, as a polyptych, as a series of windows open onto a world to which we do not have all the keys, but which lets us glimpse at fascinating frescoes of unknown colors.
