Loistava Polku

Loistava Polku is a
new and interesting band from Finland, with a distinctive sound
blending elements of Post Punk and Gothic Rock. With influences of
such bands like : Bauhaus, The Jesus And Mary Chain, Gang Of Four,
David Bowie, Varjo, Musta Paraati, Crass, Sisters Of Mercy, New Model
Army, etc.; they come with this debut album. They have two previous
E.P.’s: Loistava Polku EP (2012) and Emilia (Digi-EP/CD 2012) “Ikkuna “is a
perfect opening track with a great rhythm and it’s dark post-punk
with an aggressive edge. Musta Paraati came to my mind with this
one.”Muistihahorja” is quite brilliant:The bass fills every
possible void with their driving lines, perfectly fused with the
guitar sound. When listening to the percussions; you will find
yourself making “air drums” because their lines are really
contagious. The voice has strength and a very personal approach. ¿Why
this track is only 2:15?
“Paratiisilintu”
has strong influences of the early Bauhaus. Another track with less
than 3:00min, but quite, quite good!.”Muukalainen” is the more
stylized side of the 80’s Post Punk, without losing a single bit of
the intensity that Loistava Polku has. The same description applies
to “Emilia” This one has an even more passional approach. ”Etsikö
Meistä Ystävää“comes with drama and darkness. “Mielen
Vankila” has very good guitar riffs. ”Radiolaulu” is totally
Deathrockish , quite danceable. Remarkable track, they are very
talented and they have the ability to play (really well); different
music styles. ”Yö autiotalossa” is atmospheric, passionate
played with great feeling. The record ends with the darkly
instrumental “ Aamuyö Ja Punainen Matto”
Very impressive
album and this band is really promising and talented. I like how they
blend the Post Punk in all of its variety of sounds with fluid bass
lines and elements of Gothic Rock. They always give their 100%.Highly
Recommended.
