New York solo projects Gridfailure and Megalophobe team up once again and on this recording goes for a mixture of experimental and avant garde jazz and this is a review of their 2022 collaboration album "Harbringer Winds" which will be released i September by Nefarious Industries.
Harsh noises start off the album before adding in synths and ambient elements while distorted soundscapes can also b e heard at times. A great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the music also going into an instrumental direction at times and spoken word part are also added into certain sections of the album.
Some tracks also add in a good amount of stringed instruments, power electronics and field recordings while a lot of the music brings in more of an avant garde free form jazz style. Tortured voice and growls can also be heard on some of the songs along with some harmonica's also being utilized briefly.
All of the songs also sound very different from each other along with some songs also adding in a small amount of bass and electric guitars. Acoustic guitars and harmonica's can also be heard briefly m as well as the screams also adding in a touch of black metal when they are utilized while the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion this is another great sounding collaboration from Gridfailure and Megalophobe and if you are a fan of experimental and avant garde music, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Alterations Of The Symbiosis" "Something Foul" "The Dirge Requires A Murder" and "Harbringer Winds". 8 out of 10.
