I admit, I had no idea who Jang Kiha and the Faces are. So my listening through the album has been very strange. I like the album because it has a weird tone to it.
Mixing a small amount of funk to polyrhythmetic arrangements, the sounds of the album are everywhere. I would think that there are too many directions to the album, but it somehow fits together like a strange puzzle.
Even the slower songs are surprising because they sound like lounge tracks. I have to say, it’s a strange album.
The conclusion of all the sound together make for an interesting album and I’m on the fence about it.
