Dear people reading this:
I’m fucking stumped. Inouk is easily the strangest, most inexplicable band I’ve ever listened to. They’re weird, but not because their “music” is questionable as music. They’re weird because just when you think you can compare them to one band, they go and change gears, sounding like something completely different. Kinda how the sadly-ceased Rancid Yak Butter Tea Party or the infamous Mr. Bungle would do, only less chaotic, and more melodic.
The first song, for example, is called “Sailor Song”. In the span of two minutes and four seconds, I thought they sounded like four or five different things, at four or five different points in the tune. But it still sounded like one song. Baffling!
Search For The Bees is an EP, teasing you until their album comes out in June. Four songs, a thousand different sounds, and a quaint, pretty little closing track (“Cherry Orchard”). That gives you a little over two months to attempt to pinpoint a solid comparison. Good luck.
