They are true veterans with this being their 8th release. While I am not terribly familiar with their previous releases after doing some research I can conclude that they like to switch genres quite a bit. They started off as punk, then purely electronic and now indie rock that drips with electronic back beats and loops. It makes for a pretty cool listening experience. \u00a0Track 3 \u201cKong\u201d is the strongest and most infectious track. It starts out slow but then carries you away with the melody and groove and ends with a tasty electronic bit. On the other hand tracks 5 &amp; 10 are mostly acoustic with simple sweet melodies and orchestral accompaniment. Overall every track has its own unique sound and vibe yet flows easily into the next.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Recommended tracks: 3, 7, 6, 5, 9, 2, 1 all<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">RIYL: ambient indie rock<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Label: Sub Pop<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Reviewed by Emilie Stafford<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Germans Jumping Genres<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":245,"featured_media":28208,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3230,181],"tags":[2038,11,2230],"class_list":["post-28207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation","tag-emilie-stafford","tag-new-music-rotation","tag-the-notwist"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/notwist.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/245"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28207"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28207\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28208"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
