Ukraine artist VM is out with the album "There Is Something More. We Are Blind", and this is a production that probably falls inside of the more general rock spectrum as far as the general orientation is concerned. I'd say that the greater parts of this album alternates between alternative rock and indie rock, with a select few outliers in a few additional directions. The alternative rock based creations have a darker and firmer guitar presence, with occasional use of spoken like vocals and a sometime inclusion of what I'd describe as hip hop elements, at least in terms of vocals and vocal phrasings. The indie rock oriented songs are more dreamladen and light toned in general, and often feature some psychedelic additions of some sort or other that expand the boundaries a bit too. With some songs perhaps obviously blending aspects and details from both of these core expressions. We do get a little bit of a detour into the indie pop segment here too, and towards the end we also get a song that is a bit more clear-cut grunge-oriented in tone, style and expression. And it merits a mention that occasional inclusion of grunge elements is a part of many other songs here too, albeit as more of a secondary or tertiary flavoring rather than as a defining aspect as such. An album to seek out by those intrigued by artists that mix and blend aspects of alternative rock and indie rock.
