Kaz Mirblouk and the post punk rhythmic power of "Borderline" will move you

Kaz Mirblouk’s first single “Borderline” from his new album hits the nail right on the head. It’s a little jaw dropping to hear new music this great, as it weaves in and out of sparse rhythmic instrumentation and powerful bursts of tonal magic. Kaz has been playing and releasing his solo music, and has been an integral part of bands like Hooveriii and Numb.er in the LA scene. While a lot of the bands around this town are notorious for a bit of scandal, Kaz & his bandmates play music just because they love music. In “Borderline” he aptly belts out “How can I respect you if it’s wrong” which coincidentally aligns with the current. We’re fans of everything the dude is involved in whether it’s solo or group, and are excited for the release of his next album. Listen to “Borderline” and be hip to the cool sound.

Over the past seven years, Kaz Mirblouk, a Los Angeles-based native, has played throughout North America and Europe with his solo project, and as a member of Hooveriii and Numb•er since 2017. While attending school in Davis, Mirblouk started performing at local house shows as a two-piece along with Greta Soos on drums. He began touring the summer of 2014 along the west coast with Joey Kaufman. His first EP, Through the Glass, was released in 2015 on Lolipop records. A year later his first record, Imitate, Intimidate, was also released on Lolipop and toured the US and Canada. After graduation, Mirblouk moved back to LA. Six Tonnes De Chair released Sidestep as a 7-inch in the summer of 2017. The pair of songs represented a departure from the surf and psych-rock styling of his collegiate releases. The upcoming second record, Careless by Contrast, was written throughout late-2017 and early-2018. Mirblouk enlisted the help of Louis Cohen to co-produce the record. Experimenting with new styles and genres, Mirblouk and Cohen pushed his songwriting towards maximalism while exploring themes of transition and nostalgia. Between touring internationally in 2018 and 2019, Mirblouk self-recorded the record, featuring friends like Spencer Hoffman, Oliver Pinnel, and other bandmates to create his most refined and layered work to date.
