Vainio, Mika – “Kilo” – [Blast First Petite]

incognito   10/9/2013   A Library, CD

“Kilo” is an appropriate title for Mika Vainio’s 2013 release, as these are some heavy, dark tunes. Mostly rhythmic and synth driven drone and industrial ambience throughout the album, with tinges of death industrial here and there. There are a lot of sawtooth basslines crunching and driving the tracks, pulsing withelectric energy. Outstanding tracks all around in a wide range of bpm. It’s a bit too rhythmic and linear to be considered experimental, but it certainly comes close. Doomy, droney, industrial goodness.
