Young Prisms - In Between

Hunter Drugs-Hendrix · 04-15-2012, 06:09 AM

I love this guy's albums, so this has been my big "oh shit" this week besides the re-activeness of T.O.O.H!, but that's older news (hope that drops this year)

!!!ATTENTION!!!
For the first time I have decided to bring another musician into the project as a full time member. His name is Mastin Simmons and he is a phenomenal addition to the brain. So it follows that we are working intensively on a new Gigantic Brain album which should be released sometime this year! Mastin is a multi-instrumentalist and music producer who began producing and writing the new album with me earlier this year. The new album already has become quite an interesting mix of various styles featured throughout the history of releases of GB, plus a lot very cool new elements. The sound is being heavily updated. Lets just say there are going to be some surprises for those of you that have been with me throughout the years. There is a lot more to come regarding the future of Gigantic Brain so stay tuned. Just remember that I love all of you fucks with all my heart. You keep the blood flowing through the brain. - John Brown

kinda excited

and thanks for the Death Grips heads up...I did like the first disk ok, but am more excited to see how their sound devolves. Very unique hiphop, but not all of exmilitary worked for me.

Like it a lot...as all they have done before.

discombobulation · 04-15-2012, 05:51 PM

FYI all, there is a lossless rip of Death Grips floating around. Because the first leak was pretty dire in terms of quality haha.

Lichtbringer · 04-15-2012, 06:52 PM

Suits the "music" well then.

hahaha sort of. But the bass is properly articulated now, and there were a few other things that sounded off about the earlier rip. Plus the volume has been normalised, because there was quite a big leap from the 320 tracks and the VBR tracks.

Exmilitary sounded a lot better lossless too haha.

There's a huge difference between Hustle Bones and I've Seen Footage. I have to turn the stereo down whenever Hustle Bones ends in fear of being startled whilst driving lol I'll be looking for the lossless rip

great album btw. It's gotten a lot of spins at work today. Everyone there seemed to dig it. I'm just now checking out the new Sigur Rós.

haha I'm waiting for a better rip of this one too, no shortage of new shit to spin anyway.

Leaked AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

EDIT: Only 10 minutes in and this may be my favourite thing they have done ever. Cover art suits the music perfectly, and the sun is peeking through the clouds to match.

Johnny-Skinless · 04-16-2012, 11:41 AM

Fuck that Be'lakor song is immense! While everyone is trying to get weirder and to atract more attention, these guys are simpy putting out great music.

Lichtbringer · 04-16-2012, 11:50 AM

Holy shit. I will have to seek out everything this band has done next. Haven't heard melodeath this good in ages.

discombobulation · 04-16-2012, 01:19 PM

Didn't even know these trip-hoppers had a new one out. Sounds interesting.

open face surgery · 04-17-2012, 10:43 AM

I also agree. It's muck.

ShadowHunter · 04-17-2012, 11:00 AM

+1. sounds like standard fare melodeath that can't touch the classics

discombobulation · 04-17-2012, 11:33 AM

Enjoying this shit a lot. One of szadwhores better reccs hahaha, out in July.

candlegoat · 04-17-2012, 12:19 PM

New Mammoth Grinder EP out, 2 songs plus an Amebix cover. Their next full-length comes out this summer.

discombobulation · 04-17-2012, 02:27 PM

New Latitudes sample, this sounds great. Got a strong Katatonia vibe in the beginning, which is never a bad thing.

Sounds like it's going to join Intronaut's latest in terms of recent quality post-metal releases, which are getting few and far apart sadly.

Cognitive Defeat · 04-17-2012, 02:46 PM

OMGOMGOMG

discombobulation · 04-17-2012, 02:47 PM

Motherfucker, did you not see my post right above yours? hahaha

MS Painting an afro onto my head won't sort this one out.

But the album artwork looks a bit weird, to be honest.

lol I opened up the post window before I'd finished watching the video, then finished watching it before posting.

At least I added the coverart. I could use my sick skillz to shop you into the cover if you like?

discombobulation · 04-17-2012, 02:58 PM

Bro, thanks for the offer but I'm already in the microdetails of one of the brown brush strokes.

Antæos · 04-17-2012, 03:05 PM

SO stoked for Latitudes.

Haven't really listened to these guys before. So, while listening to this, I wasn't expecting many of the songs being very 'poppy'-ish. Nonetheless, it's pretty good stuff.

Yeah I think they've nailed the coherent mixture of poppiness and sludgeyness. Just preordered the LP + Slipmat + Poster for around £20 shipped, which is pretty cool - FLAC download on street date too (23rd iirc).
