Never Should by Shird Leopart

226th solo album by Shird Leopart

"Never Should captures Shird Leopart at his most fearless — five live, one-take improvisations that feel urgent, dangerous, and strangely luminous. In just under an hour, Leopart builds towering soundscapes where transcendence and aggression collide, as if the music were conducting its own ceremony.

Armed with electric guitar, a single-track looper, analog drum machine and synthesizers, Leopart sculpts layers that grow denser with every loop. Asynchronized sequences dart unpredictably through the mix, giving the pieces a sense of instability, like a spell just beginning to take hold.

The result is a raw, shape-shifting wall of sound — minimal in its components yet maximal in its impact. Melodies flare up like sudden visions, then dissolve back into the relentless pulse, leaving only a charged silence.

Never Should is music as invocation: hypnotic, fierce, and impossible to tame."
