Review: Kong - Merchants Of Air (2012)

-












Formed back in '88 & still going strong; KONG. With their experimental take on prog & spaced out rock/metal, this Amsterdam-based band has to be one of the most intense and challenging instrumental formations coming from the Netherlands. Their distinct sound is quite indescribable. But if you love a refreshing, intelligent & hard hitting musical journey, this one is for you. Think Monkey3 & Mother-Unit (ex 35007) & add a crazy unique industrial twist.



Ever since picking up their previous album, Kong has always been one of my hidden favorites. Although this band made some wonderful albums in the past, I'm an absolute fan of their current, evolved sound. It's spacy, heavy, epic, refreshing, atmospheric & unique. This is the kind of instrumental music I adore. Overwhelming at first, but each listen comes with new discoveries. 2012's "Merchants Of Air" is a highly enjoyable trip in experimental & heavy instrumental music. Take this one in doses, and listen without distraction.

He says: "Believe me, if there were things I could erase, I would.   I can not erase, and it made me the person I am today, but I would certainly remove some of these things.   I should keep my shirt more often.   And not have my pants down as often.   " Mark Wahlberg says that when he left the music to start his acting career, he immediately knew it was the path he should take. Even if he likes his acting career, he insists that his wife, model Rhea Durham , and their four children are much more important to him than work. "Family, faith and being a good person is the source and
