Greet – I Know How To Die Review

Greet I Know How To Die

I’ll be honest — I’m surprised I actually like this. I was going through the files I had, saw the name Greet, read the bio, and thought, “I don’t know…” But once again, it’s one of those moments where you’ve got to put your first impressions aside, hit play, and just see what you’ve got.

This might not be for everyone, but if you’re into that 1970s Led Zeppelin vibe — think “Bron-Yr-Stomp,” that Welsh folk-country-blues thing — this is right up your alley. It’s got that same earthy, acoustic, slightly mystical feel. The whole record has this Led Zeppelin III atmosphere, with a cool folk drone running through it, like John Paul Jones just going off on a creative tangent for forty minutes.

Can you listen to it every day? Maybe not. But when you do put it on, it hits in a really organic, atmospheric way. It’s the kind of record that works best on headphones, where you can get lost in the textures and little details.

For me, this was really out of left field — and that’s what made it so refreshing. It’s not going to be everyone’s thing, but for fans of that 70s folk-blues era, the bell-bottom, flare-wearing acoustic side of rock, Greet might just grab you.

A surprising and genuinely cool listen.
