One of the most eclectic releases of the year has finally hit the shelves, Fischer's Flicker's debut CD “Katmandon't” - an unusual assortment of weirdness and musicality that sets the album (and group) in a class by itself. Formed by musician Scott Fischer, whose brain is like a vast musical amusement park, Fischer's Flicker is his latest artistic brainchild, and marks the next step in a musical evolution that began over 15 years ago. While Fischer's Flicker's debut album is certainly more “mature” sounding than his previous efforts, containing none of his trademark humorous rock tunes, it stays true to the core of Fischer's music with big melodies and ambitious composition.
Undoubtedly Devin is a unique producer/composer/musician. He is a guy that follows no trends and always acts spontaneously, without carrying for any reactions he might cause. Also, he really likes to have a diversity and variety in his music works, that’s why he has released so many indifferent albums throughout his career.
When Katatonia release a new album, it’s so common to see/hear various reactions from the press and the fans. Certainly, there are those who can’t bear the fact that Katatonia changed over the years and became kinda softer than they used to be in their prime and those who got to know them after they changed their sound and wanna see them becoming a full mainstream band in the end. The truth, as always, lies in the middle.
