With "In The Nervous Lights Of Coincidence", the Vancouver-based post-hardcore act Jakartah presents a set of urgent indie-rock. Revealing a tendency towards prog-like time changes and heavy riffing, the Canadian trio’s songs are as challenging as they are compelling, as evidenced on the dynamic "Hawaii Burns at Sunrise."
This album shockingly sits comfortably with the great indie-hardcore records made of the past 20 years. Mastered in the world famous Red Room in Seattle, WA by These Arms Are Snakes drummer Chris Common, Jakartah sounds immedietly familiar and new, hopeful and desolate; dishonest and truthful. |
