Backwater

The debut album: twelve tracks written largely on tour.
Kllo, 2017

Backwater has twelve tracks, all by Kllo, with Simon Lam mixing and Andrei Eremin mixing "Virtue" and mastering. Wikipedia lists the labels as Different and Ghostly International; other coverage says Ghostly, likely a regional split. Stereogum premiered "Downfall" with a Freya Esders video on September 25, 2017.

Exclaim! called it a mature, thoughtful project and Clash an absorbing debut album, and Spectrum Culture's Grant Rindner called it one of the stronger debuts of the year.
