Unkind - Pelon juuret
2013 / Neocrust, Dark hardcore
The writing on top of this stated that there are moments when dark and gloomy music isn't considered as an option when choosing, which album to listen to. There are also moments that are absolutely opposite, when everything that's even distantly cheery, only manages to irritate. "Pelon juuret" along with the rest of Unkind's discography are practically created for those days. Some people say that Unkind's hyper dark neocrust is just extremely emotional, but in my opinion, they have managed to capture the essence of mental nausea. Both the nausea caused by the faults of society, and the one caused by a mental disorders.
My first contact with Unkind was when I decided to purchase their 2011 album "Harhakuvat" based on several recommendations by different people. Telling that I fell in love with the album would feel wrong, as love isn't the sort of stuff Unkind's music makes you feel. The same kind of proclamation about every day grievance continues on "Pelon Juuret." There's no hate or oppression to be heard, only varieties of unhappiness, frustration and fear. This album is a definite recommendation to anyone into crust and to people seeking emotive music. Favourite track: "Valtakunta."
