The Review:
Kollapse’s “Sult” album is heavy as shit. There is a lot more to it than that, but there it is. If you enjoy heavy ass music, you’re going to want to check this out. If you don’t like heavy music, well, let's chat about why you should listen to Kollapse anyway.
This Danish trio comes together to create an enormous sound that is difficult to imagine coming from such a small troupe. The sound is frankly massive. It is layered, yet organic and has enough depth to warrant repeated listens to peel back each piece and examine a new facet of the sonic assault.
While heavy grooves abound throughout “Sult”’s runtime, it is the highly emotive and thoughtful softer pieces that are speckled across the album that really create something special. Songs like “Drukner” speak to a higher plain of music that welcomes the listener into its arms and engulfs them in the thick atmosphere of angst.
“Sult” crafts an air of emotion and mystery around itself that can be difficult to decipher upon first listen. This by no means should discourage listeners from giving it a shot. The album sounds wonderful and provides more than enough material that the listener will want to return to, but repeated listens will allow for a better understanding and more appreciative listening experience. This is one that the mind can really dwell on. Give it a listen for sure.
