Idioverse - Sook (2018)

 

The fourth album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a trio with a lineup of bass, guitars, vocals and drums programming.

One guest added drums on the first song.

The 2014 album Water Bomb was a pretty good album and I had some high hopes for Sook.

Sook is a three quarters of an hour long album and it is a compilation album of unused songs going back many years. Something I did not know when I put this album up for review.

There is a lot of Radiohead in their music and some post-punk. Nirvana, the big grunge band from the 1990s springs to mind here too.

The album is full of contrasts between the more harmonic Radiohead'ish tunes and the angry dissonant post-punk.  

The vocals are good and that is the only part of this album that is good. 

The quality is decent. This album is a disappointment. It is also a name-your-price Bandcamp album.
