Well Hunger


I really have to thank Brian for sharing this awesome album!
Kapitan Korsakov is a Alternative/Noise trio from Ghent, Belgium. Their album Well Hunger is an impressive masterpiece. Kapitan Korsakov's music is characterized by the brutal guitars, a driving rhythm section and an aggressive singer. It reminds me a bit of the Butthole Surfers. The highlight of this album is the 48 minutes lasting song Sheep Dig. Enjoy!

Something Belgian, something buzzworthy! Often abbreviated to KKK, the Belgian band Kapitan Korsakov's debut Well Hunger was very well received by critics. Cutting Edge said "Well Hunger is a personal, noisy voyage, beginning with the trashy rock song "When We Were Hookers", a sound which becomes expanded and enlarged by the large number of sonic experimentations that Kapitan Korsakov add to it". This single even got them the prize for the most furious riff of 2009 on Studio Brussel's Select. They beat the stiff competition The Hickey Underwold, A Place To Bury Strangers and Baroness in this competition. Cutting Edge recently made the bold claim that "Kapitan Korsakov are the Belgian Fucked Up".
