Dead Neanderthals are steadily making a name for themselves. Helming The New Wave of Dutch Heavy Jazz, you know to expect something out of the ordinary. The duo - consisting of Ren Aquarius and Otto Kokke - are known for their free improvisational music, as is known in the jazz scene, but with a very different output. Flirting with extreme music like metal or even grindcore, their music takes on a dark twist. Their new offering, and debut on Consouling Sounds, "Craters" brings the band into dark and moody territories, adding a bass guitar to the sonic palette. The album sounds organically layered, with Aquariuss ominous percussion paving the way for Kokkes atmospheric sax arrangements, glued together by Maxime Petits bass tones. An album that will take you on a dark and twisted trip for sure. For Fans Of: Zu, MNHM, Monno, The Thing, Mombu, Mats Gustaffson, YODOK III, Sunn O))), Merzbow
