1-A DÜSSELDORF
KINGDOM BILK, named after a district of Düsseldorf, is the second work of the existing band since 1986. It contains an interesting mixture of elements of krautrock of the early seventies, psychedelic, avant-garde sounds that sound not a bit "retro". The instrumentation is rather conventional (guitar, bass, perc., Almost no electronics), but not the music. Sometimes the (mostly instrumental) pieces of aggressive, gritty guitar dominated ("tallow," title track), sometimes give smoother sound to the sound, such as the slightly wavy pieces "in March, the builders" and "Sleep, my angel." Even the long "Do moose amok" with its slow rhythm and the odd vocal interventions falls into this category. But there are also quite wacky things, like the completely atonal, hard "Vatter jute journey" or the bizarre sound collages "Home Sweet Home" (backed with a completely inappropriate Beck hits) and "Baghdad 91" (somewhat macabre imitation of aircraft and explosion noise) .
