Uluru are a instrumental trio based in Istanbul Turkey and
had previously released a couple of EPs. This vinyl release takes the bands
best tracks from the 2 Eps to make one LP.
There are 5 tracks total. This LP is pressed in 500 copies on red and
black vinyl in a nice gatefold sleeve. Side A features 3 tracks of slow paced
spacey guitar leads jams/improvs. Not a lot of effects of layers, just nice
musical communication. Uluru starts things off with a slow building guitar solo
driven track with the occasional reoccurrence of the main dark guitar riff. Later
on he adds a wah pedal to the guitar soloing. Demon Spirit is a bit longer at
8mins and starts with a more fuzzed out and low fi sound on the guitar, quite a
change in sound with this nasty layer of distortion on the sound. Far out. Elegy
returns to a more clear and clean sound but again a pretty dark feeling to the
guitar melody, like a mystery is about to begin. This track has some very
passionate guitar playing and great bass and drums as well. Side A starts off with Dazed Hill, a 10min
track (you can hear this on the bandcamp link below). It starts with a pretty
doomy guitar riff but then the solo starts. Later it becomes quite dreamy and
then really rocks out at the end. This is the most intense song on the record.
Blind Camel is another 10mins track and finished off the record. This track is
quite dynamic with slow spacey parts and also harder heavy ones. Some of this reminds me of the Italian band, King Bong. Cool
guitar solo driven jams with a good band to back up the guitar excursions.
