Rosa Canina
Am I An Amaryllis?
Rosa Canina is a trio of expats from Denmark, the UK, and the US who found each other in Amsterdam, The Netherlands,
through an admiration for experimental and heavy instrumental music. While experimental-leaning post-rock is most
apparent in their latest album 'Am I An Amaryllis?,' (notably in tracks like 'Foxglove,' 'Amaranth,' and 'Rose'), the
album also incorporates elements of drone ('Catsfoot,' 'Wysteria'), psychedelic rock ('Living Stones'), prog ('Cat O'
Nine Tails'), and early industrial ('Cinquefoil'). Although not a concept album per se, before composing each song, the
band took inspiration from the characteristics of a flower or plant as a point of departure, thus considering this
collection of songs their 'love letter to flora.' Throughout the album, Rosa Canina balances dystopian basslines with
haunting atmospherics and propulsive noise, while delicate yet provocative arrangements of cello, violins, and chimes
drift in and out like passing clouds, creating "a unique character and artistic universe where guitars and drums are
lost between noises, drones and abstract matter" (Mesmerized blog). This is the first pressing of the album, limited to
100 copies on 180 gram black vinyl and hand-numbered by the band.
