Like with the Baxter Stockman album, Mother Susurrus' Maahaava was already released on vinyl back in March 2013, and has now found its way onto CD. The difference is, colleague Cosmicmasseur already made a review on the vinyl release, which is a good read if you want to delve deeper into the musical aspect of this band. However, my colleague did forget the historical side of things, so why don't I bring you that, eh?
Finnish Mother Susurrus’ Maahaavaa is a freightening combination of doom, sludge, drone, post and psych rock. From start to finish, the overall atmosphere and feel of the album is there: dark, angry and electrifying. The production on Maahhaavaa is dense and overwhelming, and I mean that in a good way, but still leaves room to breathe. There are 5 tracks herein, and 50 minutes total running time, so you know you're going to get some epically lengthy songs here.
