Since 2010 tricot have combined elaborate guitar interplay and urgent start-stop rhythms into an amalgam that splits the seams of melodic post-rock, math-rock, and J-rock. Singer Ikkyu Nakajima’s emotional vocals lend a pop sensibility to the Kyoto group’s adrenalized strain of rock, smoothing the edges of tricot’s intensely intricate style. Their debut full-length, T H E, is a relentless display of turbocharged songwriting, whose frenetic, interlocking pieces coalesce into tricot’s signature sound.
