Take another listen--this album has a lot to offer,

This review is from: Hors de Combat (Audio CD)
I disagree with the previous review of this album--Hors de Combat is an extremely diverse and interesting album, and though not typical post rock, is a blend of old and new styles bringing a completely original angle to the ground work laid by seminal post rock bands. The album is driving, with an incredible amount of forward movement. By the time the cd has ended you literally don't know how you got there--in a good way. While listening to the album you might not realize how far each track is taking you until you reach the end; if you were to listen to the first and last track of the album back-to-back you would never guess that Kalpana was the creator of both pieces, yet the songs laid between the two make sense and create a cohesive, amazing bridge from beginning to end. The album is a rare accomplishment in both sequence and form, not to mention musical originality. This band thinks out of the box--it's refreshing, exciting, and well done.

reviews lie this time,
By Freeze (OH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hors de Combat (Audio CD)
I read a couple reviews of the disc in indie mags and they were very positive so i bought the disc (luckily it was cheap). They compared them to great post-rock bands and i could not resist. Folks, this is middle of the road at best. Nothing grabs you or makes you want to keep listening and therein lies the problem. Post-Rock music has to be gripping and moving because they rarely rely on vocals. This just doesn't get there. High hopes may have made this less enjoyable, but i can't really recommend it to YOU.
