Redemption Through Looseness

After a rocking and agro-belting debut album Built for Speed, the Swiss, whiskey-induced metal hybrid Kruger, who formed in 2001, had made themselves known in 2005 with a massively heavy and very promising second piece. Cattle Truck has been acclaimed by both critics and the public throughout Europe and has allowed Kruger to share the stage with bands like the Dillinger Escape Plan, Isis, Cult of Luna, Sleepers, Gojira and Unsane. Now in 2007, Kruger delivers an epic and intense follow-up: Redemption Through Looseness. Gloomy and dark, yet overwhelmingly powerful, this new 9 track album drowns the band's acknowledged influences into an intense magma of shredding metallurgic charge. A mix between Breach's Industrial leanings and Isis' heavy slow drone.
