Ventil - Fluidum (2020) EN

Fluidum is the debut material from the Danish band Ventil. The artists combine a few music genres into one, intriguing mix that they called, probably due to the lack of a better name, post-rock.

The whole Fluidum was designed as a concept album about this fluid barrier in the "world where the concrete and abstract coexist, but where the borders between them dissolves". My first thought coming with the EP's opener in Ravslot was undoubtedly the likeness to the band's compatriots of Efterklang. Similar colour of the vocal, lyrics in Danish and peaceful, slowcore pace. And when in Autumnus they are joined by the trumpets, the impression is full.

But in the title track Fluidum, the electronic drone and noisy experiment get the upper hand and gradually transform the dark dream pop into a more post-rock construct for the fans of A Swarm of the Sun or Immanu El. Exceptionally intriguing debut.

Fluidum  costs 4 EUR 25 DKK.
