Kruger is one of the multitude of younger acts who have been influenced by
formative metalized post-hardcore pioneers such as Isis, Neurosis and
Mastodon. The Swiss band was formed in 2001 and have strangely enough
performed at a jazz festival where I suspect more than a handful people were
in for a big surprise. "Redemption Through Looseness" is a very rich and
diverse album where fans of all aforementioned bands are likely to find a cup
of their tea. In the midst of all anguished screams, intricate guitar
structures and experimental song writing there are traces of Scandinavian
melancholy á la Cult Of Luna to be found as well. Every element of Kruger has
been packaged in a thick and powerful production courtesy of sound magician
Fredrik Nordström. Kruger is an aggressive, violent, experimental and
interesting new act to keep your eyes on. Does progressive industrial
dronecore metal sound good to you? They may be the first of its kind. If
these guys continue to grow and mature they will definitely be a force to be
reckoned with in the future. Music for the mind.
