Artificial Sheep

The widespread positive response to Lampedusa Lulla-by, KUU!s 2018 label debut on ACT also gave rise to enthusastic, imaginative and telling descriptions of the bands music: An alchemically complex jazz punk alloy. [] Really rather wonderful.( PROG magazine). A raw, thorny mixture of punk attitude, electro- dance elements, eccentric fusion, and free jazz outbursts. (All About Jazz). These plaudits drew attention to perhaps the most re-markable, unexpected, maybe even paradoxical thing about KUU! (it means moon in Finnish): that this unique quartet of singer Jelena Kulji?, two guitarists Kalle Kalima and Frank Mbus, and drums/percussion Christian Lillinger always find ways to combi-ne powerful attitude, in-your-face political engagement, and even occasional white-hot rage, with astonishingly and consistently high levels of musicality, musical interest and a kind of creativity which is capable of taking the band off in many different directions.
