Dark like blocks of flats in an ocean of smog seen from a distance, this is what the post-rock from Kiev sounds like, perfect for this dark time of the autumn to winter transformation. Two artists known as Bonheur and L.C. know how to evoke sadness in the audience.
They say that their music is "a mix of melancholy, noise, darkness, tenderness and dreams". Interestingly enough, their first track is made mostly for keys and paralyzing sadness (especially when a female voice emerges out of nowhere at the end). Guitars and noise join somehow late, from "Leaving" but also they don't outnoise this nightmarish atmosphere which has a colour of coal dust that makes your eyes wet.
The sample with the female voice that sounds like a personification of sadness appears also in "Leaving" and is accompanied by guitars that play both atmospheric and fast post-rock. But there is always quite a doze of melancholia there. Its peak reaches in "We Fade Away" where the artists engaged tear-jerking keys.
"Distant Lights" costs whatever you want to pay.
