22 are a four piece band from Norway and they are
set to release their 5 track EP ‘Kneel Estate’
on the 22nd November and after listening to the
EP a couple of times over I have to say that 22
are an very exciting band who sound like no other
band around at the moment which is a major positive
point as these guys truly are original.
The EP opens with the title track ‘Kneel
Estate’ and it is fantastic with the way
that the track builds up with fast but soft vocals
and a wide variety of soundscapes giving it a
slight eerie feel until the chorus comes at you
like a ray of sunshine before things slow down
again for the build up to creep up on you again
and again, the song is extremely creative and
downright fantastic.
‘Molecyl’ is instrumentally exciting,
there is so much going on from the funky opening
riffs to the chunky outro riffs, the vocals are
also fast paced and ever so random with a Panic
At The Disco meets Muse and Blood Brothers feel.
Each and every song on ‘Kneel Estate’
has something exciting to offer for example ‘Chrysalis’
takes you on an extremely random yet pleasing
instrumental journey whilst ‘Algorythm’
opens up sounding like it could be the theme tune
for a future James Bond movie.
The last track on the EP is a remix of the opening
track ‘Kneel Estate’ It has been remixed
by Kobib and is an interesting take on the track
giving it a more tinny sounding dance floor anthem.
It may well be early days for 22 but if ‘Kneel
Estate’ is anything to go by then these
guys could have quite a promising future as they
have created one of the most exciting and unpredictable
EP’s of the year where more stands out on
each and every listen.
4/5
