What they're saying: The self titled debut from Knot (essentially a rearrangement of the defunct Boston band Krill) has been garnering wide praise. From Stereogum: “The riffs are heavy, the drumming is complicated but never overwhelms. Everything fits exactly where it should.” A review from Thomas Wilde at The Fire Note blog helps nail down the group’s appeal: “What makes Knot so engaging is the interplay between Furman’s delivery of high concept mature lyrics and the other band members pushing and pulling their instruments to match the mood.”
What we say: Knot is perfect for anyone missing the band Krill. -K
