Knut
Challenger CD
Hydrahead
Knut really live up to the album title, as this record is an ambiguous mix of hardcore, repetitive spaced out guitar rock (think label-mates Isis) and crushing metal. The Swiss four-piece can smash apart a melody in the context of a stoned out valley sweeping thrill ride. Heavy, but at times, relenting. There is even some time for an instrumental acoustic guitar fronted (with noise in the background) tune. Way distorted strained, this album feels like a great long drive record.
