WUSA

Psychotic jazzy prog-metal supergroup (fka ZOO) with members of Indonesian noise-folk-rock bands Senyawa and Kuntari. Sun City Girls meets Mr. Bungle-esque metal-opera vibes with epic trumpet swells, thundering jazz-rock drums, and hypnotic muted bass loops. FCC clean, sung in the singer’s fictional language with no translations provided.

1. (1:41) intro: short throaty a capella loops
2. (4:07) galloping bass-driven riff, angry street preacher yelling in tongues over a chaotic off-sync choir
3. (3:38)*** menacing groove builds up gradually, swells into an epic fist-pumping triumph
4. (4:28) furious drum fills looping over each other, chaotically building into an angry repeating verse that feels like one long intro
5. (3:13)* mellow psychedelic garage rock with soft drums and cooing major-key vocals
6. (3:55) Sun City Girls style folk-rock jaunt with clanging bells and trumpet
7. (3:40) major-key pop-punk/indie-rock-ish anthem
8. (2:40)** dark doom metal intro riff, funereal trumpet and evil monastic chanting
9. (5:30) ritualistic ambient drone with angelic choirs, deep echoes and uplifting soundscapes
10. (4:17) more evil throat singing, heavy noise-jazz crescendo with sputtering glitches
11. (2:09)* thick djent rhythms, evil vocal loops going from guttural to nasal and beyond
12. (4:12) drum/bass-driven continuation of track 3/8 riffs
13. (1:53) outro: soft Tibetan Buddhist-style chanting vocal loops with stray guitar plucking
