vod – deciduus

by Dæv Tremblay


vod is a one-man experiment aiming at using the sub-bass frequency range to make utterly terrifying and tremendously heavy music.

The first full-length album, deciduus, was written and recorded in under two days completely. In order to play that low, the guitar parts are played on bass. And even then the string is really flubby! The tone on which most of the album is played to is A-1. To make sure you all understand well what this implies, let’s do some explaining.

The standard A string on a guitar is tuned to 440 Hz, it’s called … Read more

Cage – Pilots

by Dæv Tremblay


As if being a grindcore band wasn’t awesome already, Cage writes music about, and I quote, “The sound of Nicolas Cage LOSING HIS FUCKING SHIT.”

If you remember, we covered Cage‘s first EP, “Saint Nicolas”, but with the trouble we’ve had with the website host lately, that post is erased and has gone into a black hole. Nonetheless, today is our chance to redeem ourselves and we’ll be discussing the band’s latest album, Pilots, which was in fact recorded prior to “Saint Nicolas”, but released after it. It also includes the latter as … Read more

Amogh Symphony streams new song. And you thought you’d hear it all!

…And it’s mind-blowing! Meditation chants, chiptune, glitch music, noise, funk, movie music, tech-death, world music… everything seems to be found in that song! Even excerpts from “The Quantum Hack Code” are hidden in the music, hinting at the fact that this is a sequel to the story, in all it’s incandescent glory!

If you placed expectations for this album, they’re very probably ruined, but this album will definitely be a milestone in music history … Read more

…and the dark will shine upon you. Exist – Sunlight

by Dæv Tremblay

Exist has been running for a few years now, and they’ve got a new, their first, full-length album, that’s called Sunlight. Don’t be misled by the name, it’s not rainbows and butterflies.
Listen to the second track off the album, “Self-Inflicted Disguise”, below.

Their previous albums, In Mirrors EP, is almost just technically an EP, clocking at around 28 minutes long. Some bands put out full-lengths that are shorter than this. And the album featured an awesome song suite, named by the album’s title. In Mirrors EP amazed me. What I recall most vividly is the bass tone, … Read more
