After a disastrous demonstration, Germany's Daturah deliver the goods with its self-titled debut album. Daturah warps its natural sound through delay and reverb effects to concoct a spacey/ambient sound that juxtaposes a post-rock foundation with metallic drone techniques borrowed from its European counterparts. A monstrous wall of sound is created and steadily pushed through the auditory system until the surmounting pressure levels the sonic landscape, driving Daturah's sound home with inexplicable smoothness. Daturah is rough around the edges, but overall it is a soulful experience. www.daturah.de www.myspace.com/daturah
