Following that a complete change: Katadreuffe. I had been told by them that their new songs sounded way different. They were wondering what people would think. Well, to be honest they were different, but not as radical as Iβd been warned to expect. The old dense sound is still present; the singing is still gnomic in the extreme. The wall of sound still batters the audience β so much so that some people still just cannot take a whole set from this band. Β What is new β and really great -is the intensity and scope of the music, it seems to be aiming at creating a sinuous web of sound, itβs more muscular, and more tessellate, no longer content just to squat behind the rich wall of guitar noise. The song structures seem to be pushed and stretched to their limits. Itβs almost as if the band has emerged from some sort of dark tunnel and is now busy stretching the odd sonic limb. I loved it. Theyβre on a quest to somewhere that is for shit-damn sure.
