HANDCRAFT - “Experimental Play” Demo/EP 2022
Cosmic/Space Rock? Alternative/Post-Metal? Hellyeah, you can call it anything based on your own interpretation. Everything here in this 3-tracks Demo/EP (approximately 15 minutes in total) are well-thought heaviness, experimenting with varied ideas in riffs, beats & arrangements; which has produced something that sounds fresh, modern and energetic. While the first two songs which are instrumentals play a lot with technicality and strokes, the third and longest track ‘Approaching the Light in a Chaotic Dream’ is rich with blackmetal/shoegaze elements that are engrossing. Well, Malaysia’s Handcraft is another brainchild of Hazree who is also known through many bands/projects such as Shitnoise Bastards, Badass Farmer, Ragebomb, Death To All Politicians and many others (mostly into grindcore/noisecore), Thyroid (Death Metal), Pruinosus (Black Metals), etc. Handcraft is a quite different offering from this multi-talented musician. Hats off!
