Instrumental, mathy (post) rock. Bushman’s Revenge is a Norwegian group, featuring former jazz performers and experimental musicians. Mostly upbeat, driving guitar-oriented proggy rock. Impressive rhythmic syncopation and lumbering percussion, considering nearly all the tracks were recorded in single takes with few overdubs. Sounds like Hella and Omar Rodriguez Lopez.

*1. Cover of Sonny Sharrock’s “As we used to sing.” Upbeat, nonstop, loud fun. (6:18)
2. Heavy post-punk surfy groove. (8:21)
3. Repetitive, lethargic stoner rock rock with loud chord crunches and a slight Western feel. (5;07)
4. Introspective acoustic guitar pattern, brushed drums, melodic keys. (3:51)
*5. Frenzied percussion, driving mathy jam. (4:52)
6. Slow dreamy guitars and near ambience. Play with track 7. (2:23)
*7. Trippy loose feel to the stoner blowout psych piece. (6:25)
8. Proggy, bass-centric groove develops into a frenetic rhythmic march. (10:23)
