Lost in Kiev - Persona (2019) EN

Lost in Kiev, one of the most unique post-rock bands these days, come back with their new album Persona and you can safely say it's one of the most anticipated albums of the genre this year. The French show how brilliant it can be to mix heavy guitars with futuristic electronic sounds.

Maxime Ingrand, the band's guitarist explained that they wanted to first of all condensed their music into shorter, easier to grasp tracks but also to try "finding the right balance between traditional post rock, the addition of synths and machines and the texts for the film“. They sure did it right. Persona consists of short for the post-rock music songs that are filled with electronics, samples and everything that makes the traditional post-rock more interesting and attractive. Already the single and opening track includes fragment of a monologue with direct quote about creating the new quality.

The best example for the modernist approach to the topic on Persona is Lifelooper® created of samples tied together into a composition with unbelievable flow and dynamics. This is probably how the post-rock of the future looks like.

Persona costs 7.99 EUR.
