Encouraged by the great reception of their first EP FRCTL one year ago, the Swiss math-rock band Orukọ will release their new 7″ titled “Alambique/La Vache“.
Today we have the pleasure to premiere their two new songs. A frantic exploration of the math rock genre, with an attitude that that’s extremely defiant of the genre’s boundaries and expectations. The heaviness contained on both these tracks are wrapped around with some mesmerizing proggy traits that even dares to crossover to a world that allows and encourages the listener to dance to it. Not to mention the sharp and surgical production. A 7” that you will want to discover and rediscover. If “Alambique/La Vache” serves as any indication of what’s to come then we couldn’t be more excited. Listen to this amazing 7″ below.
Born in 2015 within the walls of Glaucal – a sound laboratory nestled in the middle of green meadows – Orukọ are a quartet who play intense math rock.
Formed by members of Lafopaes, Macadam Dive and Ahkab who used to hang out together to abuse coffee and beer, the band love playing loud and combining the complexity and frenzy of math rock, the soundscapes of post rock and the heaviness of post-hardcore.
