defector - день, когда мы покинули землю (2019) EN


Defector is a Ukrainian collective playing space inspired instrumental post-rock. However, those inspirations go beyond convention and influence the instrumenta music ranging from drones to massive post-metal. 

The band, at least partly, come from Dombas, no wonder there is a lot of war-inspired pictures on the artists' social media accounts. But as far as the themes they touch, there are more universal topics like space (the title "The Day When We Left Earth"), melancholy (лекарство от меланхолии, meaning  "The Cure for Melancholy"), or the inner state of a human being.

But the most important thing is music. Defector create some impressively massive guitar post-rock which in its grandeur and heaviness reminds of the Japanese MONO, which smoothly transforms into droning, filled with unsettling ambient (опустошение) or one supported by some neoclassical elements (снова утонул). A diverse and well-done album.
