The current project of Krist Novolesic, bassist of Nirvana and Kurt Cobain's right hand man, Giants in the Trees released their self-titled debut album last November. It irrigates the same seeds as the best of the Grunge sound, a churning, dark, ominous but fertile noise, just as informed by Folk and Blues instincts and legacies as Metal and Punk ones. But most of all it minds me of the best moments of those Seattle associated bands, Screaming Trees, Soundgarden, Meat Puppets and yes Nirvana and what they should sound like twenty five years and more onwards. It's a joyous and understated achievement and it seems certain that Kurt himself would have approved.
