New album release : Octophilia

Following on from their last LP, the group recently returned to the studio to record Octophilia, a new album of long-format tracks that expands its influences to the Caucasus and Baroque music, absorbing elements of math rock and poetry along the way. It also features some festive and surprising numbers that combine punk energy and Balkan intoxication, obscure beats and electro trance. Kermesz once again offers up an improbable, supercharged mélange that explodes styles and conventions in the service of a festive and devilishly dynamic musical experience.
