Les Dunes - Les Dunes (2023)

The debut album from this band from Norway.

The band is a trio with a lineup of drums, bass and guitars.

This band was signed by Karisma Records, one of the better prog rock labels in the scene today, and this is the first album on that record deal.

The music is straight forward post-rock with a hint of stoner rock and jazz.

There is not that much ebbs and flows here either. The guitars are mostly half-acoustic and with colourful, not so post rock sound. That's where the jazz influence and sound comes in.

Their take on post rock is therefore pretty gentle throughout these forty-eight minutes. 

The music is pretty interesting. It is not particular good. What this album is sorely missing is some identity and some better tunes. This album is a run of the mill instrumental post rock album.

The result is a decent album. No less and no more.
