Review - Hreda - Minnows (Single)

Hreda - Minnows (Single)

9 out of 10

So rare is it to find a sound as full as that displayed by Hreda, then take into account that this is only a 3 pronged attack, a trio of members and well, the awe meter fills right up.

Musically and, I suppose, ideologically Hreda stomp in the same ground as Explosions in the Sky, Grails and Mountains. Their oneiric blend of stratified guitar and pummelling rhythm transcend all these post-rock stalwarts and carve a new gulley the likes of Mogwai (in their more blissful moments) and Red Sparowes would shed skin for.

Highly commended, dazzling and reposeful - ignore Hreda at your own peril.
