STAGNANT RAPTURE - Heikki Ruokangas, Landon George

"Front and center in Stagnant Rapture is adherence to fidelity. The simultaneity of low fidelity and high fidelity. Loyalty to textured electric-acoustic grit and interleaved accuracy; the guitar and drum egregore straddling -buckling- the crinkle of competition and cooperation. Tangible, visceral trust in each other’s calibrated insertions amid the fizzy unfolding. Guitarist Heikki Ruokangas of Finland is nimble and angular and allows the accumulated detritus of recent mechanical past an entry to future eternal primal cry. Multi-instrumentalist Landon George from the US filters his comprehensive versatility to a pared-down drum kit, eclipsing the limited palette with boundless refulgence. This is thick, humid, cobwebby weather as music, roiling with integrity and structural soundness, a rainy day/rainy eve companion quaking the rafters of your playback system." - Killick Hinds 8.21
