(2019) Oddarrang - Hypermetros
Review:
With its fifth album, Oddarrang invites comparison to Sigur Ros and Hammock, even if the latter outfits demonstrate in their productions a greater affinity for epic builds than the Finnish quintet. Led by drummer Olavi Louhivuori, Oddarrang’s been operating for over fifteen years and counts guitarist Lasse Sakara, trombonist Ilmari Pohjola, cellist Osmo Ikonen, and bassist Lasse Lindgren as its other members; enhancing their music’s textural side, four also contribute synthesizers to the release. Much of the material on Hypermetros (a Greek word meaning ‘beyond measure’) was composed by Louhivuori, the exceptions “Ohlop” credited to Ikonen and the three-part centerpiece Trichordon to Lindgren. Similar to its aforementioned counterparts, Oddarrang traffics in a highly emotive and dramatic brand of atmospheric post-rock, its pieces often uplifting in tone and atmospheric in design. Louhivuori and company smartly sequenced the album, with the decision to ease the listener into it via the delicate “Amber” a wise move. Delivered at a stately pace, the opener gives the members extended moments to showcase their talents, though never gratuitously so. After Sakara’s resonant patterns establish a serene tone, Pohjola adds to it with a hushed solo, after which the music broadens out with additional instruments, its methodical build carefully calibrated to maximize swoon. Arriving immediately after, “Ohlop” captures a harder side of the band, especially when it dials up the intensity during the driving track’s second half with a rousing, tremolo-laden guitar solo.
