about

"No smoke and mirrors, just strong songwriting." - Fecking Bahamas
feckingbahamas.com/tag/kassei

"Met haar debuut verkoopt Kassei iedereen die rockmuziek dood verklaart een oplawaai." - Enola Magazine: www.enola.be/2018/12/14/kassei-muur/

"De band maakt muziek met feeling en dat hoor je ook door de verschillende invloeden die op ‘MUUR’ worden gemengd en die uiteindelijk leiden tot een mooi samenhangend geheel." - Indiestyle: www.indiestyle.be/album-reviews/kassei-laat-mathrock-herleven-op-muur

"Mathrock leek ons een stille dood te sterven maar het genre is dankzij bands als het Limburgse Six Hands en Kassei uit zijn comateuze toestand gehaald." - Luminous Dash: luminousdash.be/reviews/kassei-muur-eigen-beheer/

**

Math rock? Post rock? Call it "cobblestone rock" for all the guys in Kassei care. Four musicians from across the musical spectrum and hailing from various areas of Belgium came together in an upgraded garden shed in Geraardsbergen, one of the country’s sleepiest provincial towns, and made whatever they felt sounded right. “Muur” is their debut album and presents instrumental rock in the shape of a cobblestone: angularity in jagged, unpredictable, but picturesque forms. Making a virtue out of their lack of chops to pull off math rock’s naturally expected acrobatic musicianship, they simply play loud, groovy, and sometimes unabashedly pretty. Kassei may not break your head with incomprehensible metres and rhythms, but it might break your bones with its raw ferocity, taking you on a thorough shake and shuffle across the cobblestoned rural hills of Belgium where they wrote these songs.

PS: The proposed genre name has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that “kassei” means “cobblestone” in Dutch.
