NaMinimumu from Zadar, Croatia is by no means stranger to the pages of this webzine. I reviewed their release back in the day. NaMinimumu is a one man band from Zadar, Croatia and plays rock, punk and metal, with lots of melody and energy. This is is the second album in English language and it contains seven songs. It is a concept album with themes of transhumanism, artificial intelligence, and cosmic evolution. It tells about a story of a future where humans can upload their minds to digital platforms, achieve immortality, and interact with cyborgs and robots. However, this utopian vision is not without its dangers, as some of these entities may have sinister motives and pose a threat to the natural order. Musically, this album is very catchy, with lots of guitar melodies, yet not missing harshness, some delving into doom metal sector like for example ‘Life to Eternity’. Production wise album is superb. Vocals are melodic yet harsh at times when they need to be harsh, with catchy choruses with melodies bordering on anthemic. I love this album and songs like ‘Cyborgs’, and ‘Children of the Stars’ being my favorites with above mentioned ‘Life to Eternity’, also ‘Upload Your Mind’. Go get this one because it is a good piece of music.
