JARS - CD JARS III

Popis - JARS III:
On their third full-length album Jars turn away from straight-forward politicised punk rock of the 'Forgery' EP to a more complicated sound and personal lyrics, keeping their recognisable anger and loudness. With their new drummer Mikhail Rackaev and bassist Pavel Orlov JARS sound melodic and groovy, sometimes even blending funk influences, while the guitar and vocals by Anton Obrazeena stay ugly, abrasive and sharp, reminding of Shellac, Drive Like Jehu and Årabrot. The first half of this record rushes forward with hardcore punk and metal-infused riffs; the band literally builds walls of noise like Swans or My Bloody Valentine do. After the 'Ultramarathon' things get darker and slower, ending with a 10-minute epic 'Moscow Does Not Believe In Tears', which deals with morbid themes like domestic violence and stalking. All in all, this album is a highlight in Jars' discography, and they know it.
