you probably know that, you walk into a record store and get lost in the sheer excitement of record-shopping. you pull a few bits from the racks you always wanted and then you even pull some more stuff because it looks interesting. you think, while i am at it why shouldn't i take some more? it won't do no harm. this was the way kaospilot and me came together. the cover art looked quite cool and so i threw it on the store's turntable to check it out.
after the first tunes hit my ear, i knew it was one of those post-hardcore bands with a screamo touch to it. i thought it wasn't bad and so it ended up in my collection. after i took it home it somehow got lost in the flood of stuff i buy every month. i bought this record more than a year ago and it spun only a handful of times on my turntable. i believe if it had been a band i discovered at home and took the time to really listen to them beforehand, i wouldn't have bought it in the first place.
don't get me wrong, it is not bad at any accounts but just not the stuff that excites me. i'd compare their style to oathbreaker, with the difference that oathbreaker is darker and has a bit more aggression going on. check out the record here. the band hails from norway and for 'shadows' they worked out a deal with magic bullet records from the states. my green marble colour is out of 200 copies and looks just lovely. there are a few more colour-ways. check out the breakdown here. magic bullet records. 2009.
