Korsunnuz
Negative Earth (red)
Debut EP release by Korsunnuz from Sheffield, UK. Welding disparate, even conflicting, influences from stoner and alternative rock the six tracks are a musical journey from the Palm Springs desert scene via Seattle to the heart of their native UK. There are some hard left turns that come just when you think the route ahead is clear. While at times happily playing out a fascination for Americana and vintage cars, there are hints of the post apocalyptic and even the personal. Red in tooth and claw, Korsunnuz aimed from conception to produce an honest collection of material that captures the band's live energy. Recorded at Kettering's Parlour studios, engineered by Neil Haynes, the sound of Korsunnuz is vintage but never self indulgent. The instruments sound consistently massive and raw but have clarity. All blended into something that may seem somehow familiar. But on further examination is its own beast. Limited edition of 200 copies on red transparent vinyl.
