Description/Reviews:
In the new album, Kshettra moves away from familiar dark sound worlds. Although progressive and post-rock still form a strong foundation in many numbers, the band has taken a clear course towards compositions with warm harmonies, the music has been enriched with bright inclusions of electronics and nu-jazz.

Kshettra’s music could be described as a crossover of jazz fusion, avant-garde and experimental with heavy rock and punky touches. This all goes to help construct some great progressive, complex, challenging and original music.
