Candy – Candy Meatworks

Candy is a one-man project from Czechia, and they’ve just released Candy Meatworks, which appears to be their third opus. The project is one of bass guitar-centric experimental rock. The Czech lyrics are sung in an eccentric fashion, not unlike many other avant-garde bands like Mr. Bungle, to name but one, and the rhythm beneath them is heavily driven by the bass guitar. That makes their sound very funky and almost dancey. As mentioned in their bandcamp description, there’s a special place for dissonance, which emphasize the unique character of the project. The programmed drums are, for the most part, not a nuisance here, although there are some moments where they jut out and are a bit irritating. However, this EP is rather interesting and much worthy of your time. Moreover, it’s available for voluntary contribution, so feel free to grab it on their bandcamp page!
