about

“The Kouma is no longer just a Russian river, but music that floods and radiates the green meadows of your senses that did not expect to be drowned in this sudden and captivating flood.” // Perte et Fracas

“This CD is Kouma’s very first record and it already amazes us with its maturity and originality. Main reason for this: the trio’s really unusual line-up since it houses a baritone saxophone and a baritone guitar too – Kouma’s sound is as uncommon as personal, worked as powerful and finally not always so (free) jazz as that.” // Heavy Mental

“First album for this excellent Lyon trio, which in its own way combines references as diverse as Zu, Morphine or the Flying Luttenbachers. The group moves forward with a bang, without worrying too much about influences to bring us to its own confluence.” // K-Fuel

about

Kouma France

Hundred miles away from the consecrated jazz’s cannons, although mostly alien from the independent rock spheres, Kouma loves nothing more than to pace the crossroad stages, those where labels are torn apart, where underground appears in broad daylight.

Such an interesting style that I've never heard a band have before. Sounds so cool and weird in an almost lovecraftian way. Awesome! lord_dorogoth

Open minded music. Goes from nonsens to riffs that tear everything apart. Listen to this funny, entangling adventure. Super recommended. Karl V

More instrumental rock/metal strangeness from the land of fine wine and runny cheese (f**k me did the french invent everything thats good but eventually kills you?). By that standard, the answer is yes! So i say....Bring on the wine! Bring on the cheese! and bring on the NI! tinman73
