Metsä (Forest), Laivue's second full length album, two years senior to their firstborn, originates from the same seeds as its big brother, but it's been nourished with large amounts of the psychedelia of decades long gone, and allowed to spread beyond the boundaries of pop and rock. Thus Metsä grew to be versatile yet gloomy, new and strange even for the long-time listeners expecting something safe and sound. Even though nearly every song was hardened and deemed worthy in live situations, recording could not tame them, and they all turned into something altogether different: one towers with the unrelentlessness of a giant redwood, another sighs like the familiar aspen, and beneath each one lurks something wayward. Five songs clocking 40 minutes may not seem much, but heed the warning: leaving Metsä may not be simple. (http://ektrorecords.com).
