Polymerase – Unostentatious
Self released – 2021
Rock, Psych, Desert, Stoner
Rated: ***
They started around 2014 but it wasn’t until 2020 that they actually got around to recording their first four track release. We’re talking about three-piece Polymerase from the Philippines. Their EP is called Unostentatious and is a very grounded affair. With a low and earthy sounding tone the four tracks all contain this intense groove. Especially on that second track A Night With A Succubus, what a ride, what a might, and sounding so effortlessly, the way that guitar riffs and solos. Ye gods, what a track. The final track Green Is The Color Of Evil throws you a curveball, going more into a sludge and doom direction and offering vocals as well. Grimy almost inaudible vocals, guttural screams and painful screeches. It does not seem to be the route Polymerase should take when you compare it to the three amazing songs that came before. Let’s hope for more of that, and more of that soon!
