LUIK

At the start of the year, Dutch foursome LUIK released their breathtaking debut 'Owls', drawing elated reviews across the country. Their sparse, subtle sound draws comparisons to Low and Codeine: Lukas Dikkers whispering woebegone vocals, the serpentine basslines entangled with slow paced, off kilter drums and Gerrit van der Scheers haunting minimalistic guitar playing. LUIK´s beauty is not easily encapsulated, but therefore all the more compelling to those lending an ear.
