Brujači‘s “Ladanje” isn’t just a second full-length album; it’s a sonic journey that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go until the last chord fades into the ether. Released in 2017 through revered Croatian record labels such as Geenger Records and Dirty Old Empire, this sophomore release exemplifies the band’s evolution and unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of noise rock. With members hailing from illustrious bands like Torbecove Krušne Peći, Stražarni Lopov I Dobri Ljudi, Haustor, Cul-De-Sac, and Sexa, Brujači’s pedigree is beyond reproach. And on “Ladanje,” they bring all of that experience to bear in an electrifying display of talent and creativity.
At the heart of the album lies the lead vocalist’s commanding presence. His voice is a force of nature, ranging from haunting whispers to thunderous roars that reverberate through your soul. It’s gritty, it’s raw, and it’s utterly mesmerizing. With each word, he draws you deeper into Brujači’s sonic universe, refusing to let go until he’s wrung every last drop of emotion from your weary bones. But the vocals are just the tip of the iceberg. The real magic lies in the intricate interplay between the guitars, bass, and drums. From the moment the first riff kicks in, you know you’re in for something special. The guitars are a study in controlled chaos, weaving through layers of fuzz and distortion with the sheer precision and the ferocity of a hurricane. Whether they’re delivering blistering leads or hypnotic chord progressions, Brujači’s guitarists are masters of their craft, painting a vivid sonic landscape that envelops you completely.
Meanwhile, the rhythm section provides a rock-solid foundation for the chaos unfolding above. The basslines are as thick as molasses, adding a weighty depth to the proceedings that anchor the entire album in place. And the drums? Well, let’s just say they’re a force to be reckoned with. From thunderous beats to intricate fills, Brujači’s drummer is a veritable powerhouse, driving the songs forward with a relentless energy that leaves you breathless. As for the songs themselves, each one is a miniature masterpiece in its own right. Tracks like Trans” “Da Li Znaš,” “Mašina,” “Kralj Sunce,” “Ritam Zločina,” “Disco Stroj,” and “Ne Čekam” showcase Brujači’s ability to tastefully blend noise rock with experimental flourishes, resulting in familiar and groundbreaking compositions. But don’t sleep on the deeper songs either; every track on “Ladanje” has something unique to offer, whether it’s a killer riff, the other jaw-dropping sonic maneuver, or a haunting melody that stays with you long after the music has stopped.
“Ladanje” is a tour de force from start to finish. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s utterly fascinating. If you’re a fan of music that pushes the boundaries and refuses to play by the rules, then do yourself a favor and give Brujači’s “Ladanje” a listen. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
