The Finnish band has explored more genres than most people can name. They have been savage metalheads, trippy prog disciples, deftly accurate Krautrockers and purveyors of otherworldly folk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn other words, to hear one record is to hear a moment static in time that may possibly never be revisited again. The moment here is Miljard, an instrumental album where the band chose to push themselves further than usual by assuming the form of ascetics working in the sparse realms of ambient music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no form here, at least none that can be picked up casually. The opening melancholy keyboard line of “Parmalee” illustrates the heart of the record: simple webs of melody used to stitch together brooding, fractured, disparate sounds that meander, skitter, rumble and squeal through all ten tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach one has been recorded to impart a sense of mood and theme. The slow builds and recessions; the moments of mania that disappear like delusions; the depth of field between the instrumentation; they create a fully realized atmosphere whether a song is only a few minutes or runs to over twenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e01.
