'Klustered parts I and II' are the tracks that make up the double A side of 'Eats lights become lights' 7" single. Celestial droning kraut rock with elements of post rock and psychedelia thrown in the mix. Eat Lights become lights are both tight and loud. 'Klustered pt I' is a frenzied psychedelic drone-athon with mental shredding and a whirlwind of drums. This makes way for 'Klustered pt II' which is a tight as fuck, juggernaut of a track. Solid, heavily compressed grooves are complimented with twinkling guitars and subtle layers of strings to smooth things out. These guys are blatantly well into their kraut rock but this track comes of sounding like Quickspace or early Stereolab and would make a great soundtrack to Clarkson bobbing about in some new Farrari on Top Gear. I don't mean that as a dis through! This is a belter.

What their label says...

The band have hardly been around any time at all, having been formed in the winter of 2007 by Neil Rudd, former guitarist and songwriter with Kontakte. With a shared love for the sounds of such luminaries as Spacemen 3, Loop, Mercury Rev, Neu and Cluster, the band have quickly forged ahead with their hybrid Krautrock Psychedelic sound, gaining a reputation as a very exciting live act with fans and promoters alike. With effects pedals turned to ten, theirs is an immediate and satisfying sound, tight grooves, a wall of sound pierced by pristine melodies played against motorik beats! ’Orbital touchdown from the hotly tipped and much admired Eat Lights Become Lights’. Losing Today ‘From London, but sound like Düsseldorf residents on their debut single, which mixes krautrock rhythms and celestial drones to heavenly effect’. NME
