3 stars KAUAN releases a live from his 1st album released in 2007 and recorded in 2017 under the name 'Live 13'; album that made me know them from the start, pouring into a melancholic dark prog style very post-metal; the kind I love. It is Anton BELOV who orchestrates this extraordinary group where the sounds alternate between radiant depressive nostalgia of all beauty; languorous choirs, neo-classical atmosphere with the violin and staggering growl voices that seem to come from the icy Scandinavian steppes. This is the 3rd chapter of live productions, the 14th album all confused with material from 'Lumikuuro' and some bonuses from 'Tietäjän Laulu', it is above all an opportunity to immerse themselves in their wilder sound of yesteryear , cruder;

'Savu & Aamu ja Kaste' on a melancholic doom sound with rise, riff and violin. 'Lumikuuro' takes a violin attack. 'Koivun Elämä' softer in the background but still as melancholy. 'Sumun Syleily' with a halfway break opening on the floydian guitar parts. 'Вместо Слёз' for the title in the language of there, dark, austere. 'Äidin Laulu' for the epic suite on a slow and long progressive rise, a crystalline piano break, final on the psychedelic Pink Floyd. 'Orkidea' for the three-key piano we all played on, for the cataclysmic rise. 'Unsoi' for the finale and the end of the explosive end.

KAUAN makes music, between freezing doom, ethereal and meditative neo-classical post-rock, sweet thoughts before the return of winter, freezing cold, dark glimmers; KAUAN offers a one-hour cover of their sound of yesteryear and invites you on an absolute journey, the one from which you will not return except. An album that can be found live on a platform before buying it and keeping it for yourself for an intense dreamlike journey. (3.5)
