Kinski are a wet dream for space-rock and psych-garage aficionados. Intense, explosive, and menacing when the rough-and-tumble guitar tempests strike, the band is equally capable of creating absolutely ethereal, restrained beauty. Kinski are down with the epic dynamics for just three of the nine tunes (including nine-minute closer Silent Biker Type) on their latest, Down Below Its Chaos. Most of the songs stay true to their initial constructs as either seedy, roiling rockers or cosmic head trips. Kinski leader Chris Martin lends his laconic drawl to a couple of tracks, but its a soft delivery that never draws your attention away from the fervid guitars and alluring textures that make Chaos a keeper. Celebrate its release tonight. With Wolves in the Throne Room and Helms Allee.
