Now expanded to a quartet, Kerala Dust trace a winding path through techno, Krautrock and smoky Americana, but this latest collection feels less like a genre exercise and more like a document of restlessness. Recorded across Tuscany, Austin, Berlin and Rome, it captures vocalist and chief electrician Edmund Kenny's songwriting at its most exposed: 'How The Light Gets In' is stripped and direct, drawing more from Springsteen than club culture. Elsewhere, 'Ours Are The Only Eyes That See' builds tension through repetition, like a Morricone score on a Berlin comedown. 'Pulse VI' and 'Future Visions' dial up the trip-hop unease, while 'April, 1992' feels like a half-remembered dream, sliding between synth murmurs and broken memories. There's an undercurrent of romance throughout, but it's haunted rather than hopeful. It's not all bleak though-the band sound looser, less mannered, with new members Tim Gardner (keys) and Pascal Karier (drums) helping stretch the group's dynamic. It's the sound of a band detaching from any fixed identity, and finding more clarity in the blur.
