Cal: Drew

Three-piece Jakob make deliciously expansive and frequently intense dissonant rock music, that given the right volume and listener's perception is quite spell bounding. 'Cale:Drew' is the trio's second full length album (but third release), expanding and further developing the spatial ideas explored on the critically acclaimed 'Subsets Of Sets' (nominated for ''Best Album" at the B-Net New Zealand Music 2002 Awards). Recorded with David Holmes and Jesse Booher in Wellington, early 2003 at The Church, guest appearances on the album include Jane Pierre - cello on 'Faye', Jesse Booher from Looma - guitar on ' Was Hidden' and Tristan Dingemans of HDU - guitar on 'Laburnum', this exceptional album is also beautifully packaged in a luscious 16 page hand-stitched book. This is a world class album, belonging in the home of any thinking indie/alternative rock fan. Very special and very recommended. Inertia. 2005.
