Pe'ahi II - Original 2025 Beat Dies label 8-track LP

Original 2025 Beat Dies label 8-track LP - the 10th album by Danish noise noir duo - Alison Ross from Pop Matters compared the Pe’ahi I album with the 2025 one and found that Whereas the first Pe’ahi reveled in a cleaner palette (employing harps and xylophones in addition to the usual rock instruments), Pe’ahi II, to my ears, exults a bit more in the cacophony-meets-euphony ethos that makes the Raveonettes so mind-blowing. The incongruous clashing of sounds yields both visceral and blissful thrills.

For my money, Pe’ahi II is a better album than the original Pe’ahi. Maybe that’s because I prefer my Raveonettes to be all abrasive white noise—leavened with holy harmonies, yes, but dominated by dissonance that I can actually see and feel. Pe’ahi had fuzzy edges, to be sure, but Pe’ahi II is rife with charging, outsized riffs and reverb that have an almost confrontational presence, bolstered by intermittent electronic elements.
