The majority of legends within the post-punk movement are prone to be so heavily depressing that it's extremely hard for an average escapist to relate to their universe in a normal state of mind. That isn't a problem with Josef K:
"Sorry for laughing
there's too much happening
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening"

(Track 10: Sorry for laughing)
It's actually music you can introduce for a friend, who isn't into this kind of music... But Josef K, who has taken their name from the main character of Kafka's novel The Trial, are defiantly also mysterious and obscure:
"So I'll disappear through the crack in the wall and the memories I leave will be nothing at all"

(Track 4: It's kinda funny)
The instrumental part is scratchy and melodious in a lovely way that makes the almost 30 minutes together with Josef K to an absolute pleasure.
