Based out of Chennai, singer-songwriter Kishore Krishna works a splendid one man show with Adam and the Fish Eyed Poets. If his MySpace page is any indication, this musician’s scope extends well across a range of styles and genres. Krishna works a bit of digital gloom – tinny synth loops skirt a throbbing bass drum, affecting a cavernous mysticism – on ‘Black eyed Monster.’ The song recalls the league of macabre sonnets often indulged in by the likes of a Nine Inch Nails or Depeche Mode. “Black eyed monster, have you no comfort to give/As you fade into the candles final flickering?,” Krishna’s sings, his vocals trembling in Jeff Buckley fashion to this despondent dirge. When the song moves into the refrain Krishna wails and scatters pitchy notes over a louder shuddering spell of electronics and fast paced beats. All in all the song arrests the senses as Krishna keeps things interesting – with raging highs and solemn lows – even within its doomy soundscape. There is just the slight danger of this expression getting tagged as a tad pretentious and tired in the estranged-emo kind of way.
