They are getting better and better (10/10)
I watch Eclectek's development for several years now and I am more and more impressed. Their works were interesting from the very beginning (these old albums have been unfortunately removed from Jamendo), but they work hard and with each new album they cross new borders. And I really like where they are heading. They started with very eclectic :) mixture of rock, electronica, hip-hop and funk. But on this two-track minialbum they step deeper into the realm of rock music. And they really should feel at home here. Both tracks are outstanding - highly energetic, with strong aggressive female vocals and ultra catchy melodies. Their rock is spiced up with electronica, but in perfect proportions, without turning their music into some campy electroclash shit. The bands that immediately come to mind are Guano Apes and Skunk Anansie. Do not get me wrong; I do not bring these names as a claim of unoriginality - everybody has some influences. I just want to tell you two things: one - what type of music you can expect, because "rock" is too general and "alternative rock" is not only an extremely stupid, but also a meaningless label; and the second - they already reached the level of these bands. This is not some amateurish effort rated "10/10", because it is "good for non-professionals" (the usual argument of bad artists complaining on low ratings). This recording gets "10/10", because you could mistake it for a new Skunk Anansie's single. This is how good it is. My only complaint is a usual one in such cases - IT IS TOO SHORT! I WANT MORE! To sum up - wanna hear some really fresh super catchy top quality heavy rock? Check out this album. [Artist's website] |
