Ginormous is a miracle to me. When you write about music you always begin to draw
comparisons or search for a drawer in which you can classify the music.
When it comes to write about records from ant-zen/hymen I always have the same problem....how can I call this music?
For sure you can take the industrial drawer or the idm industrial drawer
or the idm electronica industrial drawer............
Ok, one thing is quite plain to me, this is a unique and brilliant record. You have rough industrial drums mixed up with overdriven guitar and string sounds which have more power than a complte classic orchestra. Bryan Konietzko aka Ginormous is a genius, the record is always perfectly poised, noise and harmonies, hectic and laid back sounds. Even if the weight of the soundscape becomes a critical mass ginormous suprises just a second later with a light sound.
The beauty of each trrack crawls slowly into your head. Frighten? No..,don't be afraid and follow ginormous to his endless procession.
(since 2006 I don't give "points" to rate records anymore, you can be sure that when I write about a record I approve this record deep out of my heart to you)
