Circle is ever changing, ever Circular. On Rautatie the band - which following the introduction of guitarists J. & P. Jääskeläinen is now a six-piece - once again dives into uncharted waters of music, into a miasma of influences that feels vaguely familiar but, in an uncanny way, is not quite real. Rautatie is epic hard rock and colossal riffs that corrode into fragments of black metallic atonality over time. Occasionally the album’s majestic elements step aside and let sprinkles of athletic boogie take the center stage. Together the eight tracks on the album form a hard rocking bullet train, speeding ever onwards on a circular railroad to infinity. Or, as Circle itself says: “harvest hark islam nappe jorum puzzle tar pejorative lounge meridian ylem pul alkyd”
