No Kilter are a four piece band who formed in Glasgow two years ago, when
the band formed they had the aim of producing interesting music that blends
the intensity of punk with the complexity of math rock that was fun to
play live, the band have just finished their second EP 'Galore Nation'
and I really don’t see that this band have accomplished what they
were aiming for as the production of the EP sounds dodgy. The band have
been compared to bands such as At The Drive In and Fugazi but I just can’t
see the comparisons.
The EP opens with the ever so long named 'Congratulations On Your Decision
To Become A Criminal' the introduction to the song sounds pretty ropey
like the person producing the EP really didn’t know what they were
doing and the song ends up being long winded and very boring running for
nearly 5 and a half minutes. 'Space Raiders' starts off as quite a promising
song with some good guitar riffs and oddly addictive catchy sounding shouty
vocals but the track seems to change in sound as it goes on and 7 minutes
later when the song finally ends everything seems too much.
I am the first person to admit to loving progressive rock with songs that
seem to last forever and No Kilter do have the progressive side with some
songs running for well over 8 minutes but the songs seem to progress into
absolute nothing making No Kilter a very boring band.
1.5/5
