This is a review of another recording from New York's solo project Gridfailure which shows the music going for a mixture of dark ambient, harsh noise, post industrial and experimental and the album was self released in 2022 and called "Perpendicular To The Living ones".
Field recordings start off the album while the synths also bring in elements of dark ambient and capture the atmosphere of a horror movie soundtrack when they are introduced onto the recording. Programmed industrial beats can also be heard at times the vocals are a mixture of shouts and harsh screams.
Melodies can also be heard in some of the electric guitars which also give the songs more of an extreme metal touch. Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while harsh noises are also added into certain sections of the recording along with each song also sounding very different from each other.
At times the music also gets very experimental sounding along with one of the tracks also being an instrumental, percussion is also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording. The production sounds very dark and lo-fi while the lyrics cover inescapable natural disasters, viruses and incineration themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Gridfailure and if you are a fan of dark ambient, harsh noise, post industrial and experimental, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Aftermath Dysphoria" and "Perpendicular To The Living ones". 8 out of 10.
