  • Photographers: David Belisle; Katie Martin; Ryan Chananovich.
  • Onstage and over the course of several previous albums, Seattle thunder purveyors Kinski honed the art of staring Mount St. Helens in the mouth and spelunking for the explosive rock powers within--an experience that for the listener worked much more in the former setting than in the latter. On DOWN BELOW IT'S CHAOS the quartet keep that live power intact, but display a deeper understanding of translating the intensity to record. The results make for what is by far their best record and a classic of heavy millennial neo-Kraut.
  • The eight songs offer newfound pleasures for Kinski fans: pop hooks, dynamics, and, perhaps most shockingly, vocals (see "Dayroom at Narita Int'l" and "Punching Goodbye Out Front"), while gentle interludes such as "Boy, Was I Mad" and "Plan, Steal, Drive" offer welcome quiet oases from the throbbing energy. Randall Dunn--Earth, Sunn O))), Boris--brings his adept hand to the production.
Professional Reviews
Q (p.98) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he instrumental likes of 'Boy, Was I Mad!' sound like a more urgent Mogwai armed with fuzzed-up guitars."

Alternative Press (p.168) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Sporting shrieking feedback and grooves so deep one could rationally fear getting stuck in them, DOWN BELOW IT'S CHAOS is heavier than 95 percent of today's metalcore releases without even trying to be."
