SAID ABOUT MESMER

"Finnish act Mesmer
Mesmer (FIN)
http://www.myspace.com/mesmer1
Search: Mesmer →
tends to take a kitchen sink/anything goes approach to their music, but they are definitely at their best when they settle into a motoric Krautrock groove. (...) They still hit that groove though, just at high BPMs and with more of a Suicide

-level intensity. Why can't more modern Kraut bands attain this sort of energy level more often? Too much Kraftwerk? That is why they fail and Mesmer does not." - It's a Trap!

"This is another of those acts I’ve never heard before, but definitely will be digging further into after being kicked in the sack by ‘The Ghost Of A Tennis Court’. With impeccable skills they storm you as a ferocious avalanche of post-punk, electro-rock, at times even touching pop ever so slightly, and seemingly sudden psychedelic urges they can’t but follow. Like children on a sugar rush in a candy store. Which makes the album a somewhat challenging experience, but once you’re in… Oh, yeah!" - All Scandinavian

"Mesmer manages to surprise with an incredibly diverse rock album, which reaches a level that is rarely attained in Finland." - Aamulehti

"One could imagine that Mesmer would feel at home in some messy rehearsal space somewhere in Williamsburg. Mesmer is all about ricocheting and fiery riffage, freak-outs flirting with punk rock, swirls of krautrock and even unapologetically introverted drone." - Soundi

"Mesmer succeeds in combining electronic and acoustic elements into a whole, that is at the same time experimental and easy to like." - Noise.fi

"Total insanity!! I couldn't believe my ears when some black metal vocals roared in, justa after I’d got comfortable with the mellower sections.... Brilliant!!!" - Bad Acid Magazine
