Een zeer boeiend album dat zeer veel doet denken aan de oude Tarentel, maar er toch nog een eigen geluid op na weet te houden.
Iig een van de interessantere post-rock albums/acts die ik de laatste tijd heb gehoord.

Hopelijk is dit album beter dan de voorganger 'Projector Gunship Held {Ø}' uit, ik meen, 2009 (staat hier niet op de site). Dat album was nl. oersaai; in mijn beleving dan.

ik vind deze best wel sterk...als je Tarentel kunt waarderen moet dit toch ook zeker kunnen bevallen. Al vind ik die zelf wel beter.

Tarentel heb ik wel eens wat van beluisterd. Te lang terug om nog precies voor de geest te halen wat het was. Volgens mij vond ik het wel aardig.
Ken jij de voorganger van deze? Ligt dit album in de lijn daarvan?

voorganger ken ik niet, las wel dat deze beter zou moeten zijn. Beter uitgewerkt enzo.

Dit ziet er minstens aardig uit. Zal hier binnenkort ook maar even een poging aan wagen.

Mijn review op EARLabs.org (alweer wat maanden oud, maar toch)
Hopelijk dat er wat meer aandacht komt voor deze release want is zeker de moeite.

Part two in a trilogy from a new kraut/post-rock UK trio. Spaced-out guitars with hypnotizing drums.
Lately we have been widening our horizons a bit here at EARLabs and the new release by Cut Iowa Network is again such a side step. On their third album, part two in a trilogy, Projector Gunship {Ø,{Ø}}, present us a total of 8 tracks in a krautrock/post-rock tradition. Something we don't review here very often. Nonetheless it is something that still fits in with the long tradition of experimental music. If you think about acts such as Can, Neu or even Tangerine Dream the connection is of course very close.
The 8 pieces presented on Projector Gunship {Ø,{Ø}} are really tight together. With drums, guitars, electronica and tape loops they create a coherent collection of songs.
At first listen it is all a bit of the same, while with repeated listening the hypnotizing character is opened up slowly. While the guitars and electronics create spacey soundscapes the drums are dragging your attention to them with sometimes repeating patterns and other moments really free escapades. It is the rhythms that really make this music, they for the strongest point in this music. They induce the attraction, the trance. The other instruments are there to complete the picture.
This combination of spaced out soundscapes with the hypnotizing drums reminds a lot of the work done by Tarentel, though the music seems more structured here. This might be due to the approach where the recordings have been added less.
Projector Gunship {Ø,{Ø}} is one of the more interesting albums in the post-rock genre of the moment, though it might not appeal as much to those people who like the long stretched-out pieces by the big bands as it will to those who are more into the krautrock drenched space music. Cut Iowa Network is really something to check out, and probably one keep the eyes open for in the future.
