Kinit Her - Glyms Or Beame Of Radicall Truthes [Hinterzimmer - 2009]Musically Kinit Her sit in place somewhere between mid-pace 90's Scandinavian black metal, dark horror metal, darkly hued folk rock, blackly sounding Russian and Jewish sounding string pluck and bow, along with hints of ritual elements and a damned theatrical air. And if all that wasn’t an interesting enough concoction just wait until you hear the vocals. The vocals are best described as warbling, high pitched and theatrical cat like; it's very difficult to put into words quite what they sound like but they are very distinctive, one-off and for the most part work great with-in the strange yet compelling mixture of sounds on offer here. The main vocals are often backed by deeper theatrical type male vocals which work as a nice counterbalance to the higher pitch lead vocals. But beneath the quirky and distinctive edge of the vocals there is some great muilt-genre song writing going on that managers to be atmospheric, often highly memorable , darkly quirky and above all very creative and originally.
This is the band’s first album proper after a few ltd cdr releases and have to say it’s a highly distinctive, curious, atmospheric and theatrical debut album which I can highly recommend to anyone who digs off-kilter post Black metal, horror based metallic matter or strange off centre yet filmatic folk rock music.
