Djam Karet - a newbie

[Joe F.]

Both of these favor their ambient mellow side. Their other side is more of a KC channeling the Allman Brothers (Eat a Peach era) peel the paint off the walls type of vibe.

Agreed.

I wouldn't judge Djam Karet on their last two albums, even if they are pretty good.

Thanks all of you for guiding me here! What about their 80's output?

Reflections from the Firepool is a classic!

I concur. It's amazeballs.

[MYSTERIOUS TRAVELLER]

that's 1989 I think...

I personally love The Ritual Continues. It is 1987 I think

This is one of two I've kept; The Devouring being the other. Djam Karet remains somewhat of a mystery to me, in that they on paper would seem to be exactly my thing - still I've never really warmed to them.

If I was only going to have two, those would be them.

(Disclosure: they are friends of mine. I've played on a couple of Firepool Records releases. Don't hold that against DK though.)

Don't let this guy's modesty fool you. Those Herd of Instinct albums are excellent; worth picking up once your initial DK curiosity has been slaked.

Lol. I think maybe you are mixing me up with HOI's Warr Guitarist Mark Cook. I did produce their first album, and actually played a little Warr guitar and bass on it. But, I am more of a hobbiest. Those guys are the real deal for sure.
