Thank you for watching my “KADAVAR – KADAVAR album review” video. Wow, what a great band. To be honest with you, I don’t even know what took me that long to wait to get my hands on the first Kadavar album. Well, I’m glad that I finally have it and Kadavar by Kadavar (sounds weird, I know) has quickly become one of my favorite top albums for the year 2014. Of course, though, I am late. Kadavar was released in 2012 by Nuclear blast. It’s a little bit difficult for me to describe their sound, because while it sounds so familiar in many ways, they certainly have their unique approach to structuring and performing their material. From what I read online, some refer to Kadavar as Stoner Rock band, others put them in the Acid Rock, Psychedelic Rock or hard Rock genre. Everything fits because Kadavar manages to seamlessly combine a whole variety of rock sub genres. They only thing they do object to is the whole notion of them being Occultist or Satanists. For some reason they get all the time bucketed them into that. It doesn’t make any sense, I personally have no idea who somebody would come up with that idea. Even their own record label Nuclear Blast contributes to those rumors, but I guess it makes for better marketing. Anyway, back to their music. If you like bands like Orchid or Graveyard, chances are you will like Kadavar too. But listen for yourself and find out. Here is the tracklist of “Kadavar” by Kadavar: 1. All our thoughts 2. Black Sun 3. Forgotten Past 4. Goddess of Dawn 5. Creature of the Demon 6. Purple Sage (Theremin – Shazzula) Well, what you get is 6 tracks loaded with heavy rift paired with intelligently crafted arrangements. Everything sounds authentic, raw and earthy. No knick-knacks, just straight forward rock and roll. Just the way I like it. As far as the Kadavar band members is concerned, they go by their knick-names: Mammut (bass), Tiger (drums) and Lindemann (vocals and guitar). They come from Berlin, Germany. Unfortunately, I did miss their US tour early this years but I will make sure to catch them next time they tour the East Coast. I also purchased the second Kadavar album (Abra Kadavar) and will do a review on that shortly.
