Crinklechips I have only just discovered Circle. Its hard to describe them but I find their extremely varied back catalogue really exciting.

They appear to have two personas. One live and one studio based.

Live they are easier to describe. Kraut/Prog/Psych/Heavy rock is what they peddle live. Its wonderfully original whilst wearing its influences proudly. There are moments of early Amon Duul II, Judas Priest, The Grateful Dead and even Opeth. They enjoy performing hypnotic, drawn out songs with monotonous, motorik riffs. If this sounds like your thing then believe me these guys are amongst the best at what they do.

Then there are their studio efforts. Whilst you get the same as their live offerings the exploration in the studio is off the charts! They have gone in every direction imaginable. If you like highly creative bands that confound you with bizarre releases just as you think you have them nailed then Circle must surely win a place in your collection!

This live album is a great place to start and contains one of my fave songs so far - Rakautta al Dente.

I highly recommend this band! Circle are contenders for discovery of the year. Double thumbs up! Favorite track: Rakkautta al dente.

C.B. I had the fortune to catch Circle multiple times on the tour this material was drawn from and I loved every minute of it. It seems the excellent Rakkauta al Dente finally has a name. This is a very good selection of tracks including an great version of Koitto. Favorite track: Koitto.

about

6000 km/h Part 2 is a live recording from Circle’s European tour in May 2015, which saw the band perform at clubs and festivals. Beside previously released material, the album captures Circle playing ferociously bold takes of previously unreleased songs, such as ”Rakkautta al Dente”. In essence, the album depicts a band on the verge of collapse.

6000 km/h Part 2 continues Ektro Records’ 6000 km/h live record series, which now totals three live albums.
