Search - Lafcadio :: Kibosh (Jewl)

"Wonky jazz fusion and eclectic indie acid rock meet art house screamo in Lafcadio's bizarre brand of guitar-driven experimentation." -- Exclaim! Kibosh represents an evolutionary leap in Lafcadio's discography. Throughout the Indiana band's sophomore effort, there is an oscillation between powerfully regulated wall-of-sound metal and delirious, spasming, often sublime experimentation. It's all distinctly Lafcadio-- a coherent, unified composition, each track complementing the next. Guitars and percussion are stunning as usual, leads and drums braiding together in an insane double helix of truly inspired rock music. On the whole, this album has all the hallmarks of a gold standard, discourse-shifting, classic metal album minus the singles, minus the formulas, minus the bullshit, and minus the boredom.
