Every single artist always says the same thing when they release a new album; "This is not only the best album I've ever made in my entire career but it's also the most special and personal album I've ever made", and then they proceed to release something that sounds exactly like everything else they ever released.
Ok, I'm not only generalizing here, but I probably managed to shit on every artist that ever existed on this planet, and that in the opening sentence of this press release. Good going idiot!
Although Kuggur is a new musical entity, its sole member Guðmundur Óli Pálmason is no newcomer to music, being currently active in Icelandic post-doom/black metal band Katla as well as having been a founding member and drummer for twenty years in Sólstafir
Kuggur's music is of a new ilk though,Guðmundur uses Kuggur to explore previously unvisited musical landscapes without any pre-set limitations.
