Looking for the definition of the most remarkable sound? Leave it to LYSSA. These three gentlemen have been playing in the same line-up since 1996, and in that time have long since grown atuned to their riffs, and therefore can get away with things that dont occur to other band sin the slightest. This can mean the construction of raw walls of sound the same as it can exceptional rythmic labyrinths.
Their current release Amoral successfully lifts from all till now known musical coordinates. Fucking genius, remarked Tyson Cosby of Squall. Hes right. LYSSAs music is like an massive unknown animal, which has forever been living its own life. Unforgiving and hypnotic base lines crash into drums, which are like from some other world, the nervous guitar is also very far from beeing traditional.
LYSSA however are no longer that renowned killing and crushing machine on Amoral they found their way into quieter and more mysterious spaces. As if Killdozer elegantly borrowed a few ideas from Jawbox. To be sure, Amoral is without a doubt one of the most expressive and original records of the entire catalogue of their label.
And the inspirational sources of LYSSA? Just as unbelievable as the sound of this trio: Obscure film comedies, long journeys, physiological irregularities of the human body, the careful study of bands from the Amphetamnie Reptile Records catalogue. Doesnt make sense? Should it?
