Attu - We Are Ordinary People

Opener ''Mountain Divide'' hits the listener with a epic blitzkrieg of bass, juddering noise, and howling, subterranean feedback, cut through with fizzing drums, to tremendous atmospheric effect: Like screaming into the wind on the top of a mountain in the words of the boys themselves.''Mathfall'' is a sinuous groover, built around a lolloping bass sequence, grime infused beats, sinister chords and vocal chatter. ''Mon La'' rounds out the release in a more introspective mood, heartbreaking pitch bent chords wash together like Boards Of Canada heard through a broken tube-radio.Their intricate, yet muscular sound scapes and skittering percussion have an epic, alien quality that set them head and shoulders above their less ambitious peers. Having a background in punk, metal and broken beat as well as noise and techno helps give Lakker their truly unique and uncompromising sound.Currently touring their blistering live /AV set across the planet and hard at work on their debut LP for R&S you'll be hearing a lot more from Lakker very soon.
