Can you say Kraut? Working their way around a melody then a groove, then a melody again these three Leeds boys (featuring members of Bilge Pump), in absorbing and acknowledging everything from dub, jazz, funk, and electronic music, subvert all tidy enclosures of prog-this or post-that and début album Slow as an Eyeball sure does rock with a capital K.
Nitkowski are a hard bunch to pin down. We say Math-Jazz two guitar, nae bass assault with Post-Rocky breakdowns. Rock Sound say: "Spiderweave atonal guitar licks and virtuoso drum rolls within fluid time signatures". Band says: "definitely not noise or Jazz". Make your own mind up.
With aye aye too.
Tunes in bar 'til late from DJ Poughkeepsie Megasailor.
