Ruins - Pallaschtom

Review by ささきのぞみ

Ruins' album Pallaschtom is a frenetic and experimental journey through the worlds of progressive rock, math rock, and avant-garde music. The duo, consisting of drummer Tatsuya Yoshida and bassist/vocalist Hisashi Sasaki, create a whirlwind of complex rhythms, dissonant melodies, and unconventional song structures that challenge the listener's expectations at every turn.

From the opening track "Vrresto," with its stuttering rhythms and angular guitar riffs, to the closing epic "Pallaschtom," which features a dizzying array of time signatures and instrumental textures, Pallaschtom is a masterclass in musical virtuosity and boundary-pushing creativity. Sasaki's vocals, which range from guttural screams to haunting whispers, add an extra layer of intensity and unpredictability to the proceedings.

Standout tracks include the jagged, stop-start rhythms of "Jingisukan," the jarring time shifts of "Yamataikoku," and the haunting, atmospheric "Kamikaze." Throughout the album, Yoshida's drumming is a marvel of precision and inventiveness, driving the songs forward with a relentless energy.
