A Canshaker Pi show is actually one stunning kamikaze manoeuvre. With a handful of highly flammable guitar pop, this young Amsterdam quartet is a master of the arts: pounding, spluttering, wrestling and bouncing… and that until the last drop of sweat flows. Unfortunately, that young enthusiasm has an expiration date for every soul. That is why Canshaker Pi is pursuing it like a maniac. On the long-awaited untitled debut – which will be released on 11 November by Excelsior Recordings – that urgency is steadily bursting at the seams.
No surprise then that Pavement frontman Stephen Malkmus was quite charmed by Canshaker Pi's idiosyncratic, noisy indie pop. Producer and good friend Remko Schouten brought Malkmus to the Netherlands to work with the band in the studio. With Malkmus and Schouten behind the controls, Canshaker Pi found more balance between dosing and derailing on their self-titled debut.
Long story short: Canshaker Pi plays itself pleasantly dizzy throughout these eleven songs. The fierce garage rock of Adolescence Profound, the temperamental slow burner What You're Trying To Say, the neurotic tempo-changing Crashed Car Running… there really isn't a dull moment. Canshaker Pi purposefully lets the internal tensions bubble up to absolute boiling point, until the music surrenders to the unbridled spontaneity that so graces this crazy quartet.
