Knullkompis are a solo project from Finland that has recently had music reviewed in this zine and on this recording plays a mixture of noise and post industrial and this is a review of his 2021 album "A Faustian Drug Bust" which was released by MuteAnt Sounds.
Industrial style beats start off the album along with some power electronics and noises a few seconds later. At times the music also sounds very mechanical and militant sounding while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and distorted sounds can also be heard in some parts of the recording.
Home made instruments can also be heard in some parts of the recording and also gives the music more of an experimental and avant garde feeling. When synths are utilized they also take the songs into more of a darker direction along with a lot of the drum beats also being programmed and adding in touches of underground dance music when they are utilized as well as most of the music also sticking to an instrumental direction.
Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly along with each track also sounding very different from each other as well as one song also adding in a brief use of pianos. The production sounds very dark while the song themes focus on a dystopian society full of pollution , decaying technology and the collapse of society.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Knullkompis and if you are a fan of noise and post industrial, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Bite The Pillow" and "Consolating Warmth Of Crematory". 8 out of 10.
