Gnaw Their Tongues - All the Dread Magnificence of Perversity

One word sums up this band - EXTREME,no other way to describe the sonic noisescapes this one man noise machine produces.Its ugly,terrifying,intense but its also a wonderfully intriguing piece of sonic work that some people will loathe with a passion but some other people will find a listening experience.Even though this is based around a Doom/Sludge experiment,this goes beyond that.Most of the time it barely resembles music at all,more of a trip into the brain of a seriously disturbed human being.There is some drumbeats,organ and some real filthy bass lines but for the most part its a experimental noise fest.A lot of it is morbid to the extreme and the ugly noise samples make it even more alarming to the ear.Among the downtuned riffs and the shrieked vocal work,this is a underlying beauty but whether you discovered this is a big question.This is not for the faint of heart,take songs like and check out these titles -"My Orifices Await Ravaging’, ‘The Stench Of Dead Horses On My Breath And The Vile Of Existence In My Hands’, ‘The Gnostic Ritual Consumption Of Semen As Embodiment Of Wounds Teared In The Soul" you get something hellish and perverse from a musical direction standpoint.There is "Godflesh" like moments,some Black Metal sounds but there is also a lot of dark ambiance.Hard to recommend this to the average listener but if you like to test your pain threshold,then is no better album to push your own listening boundaries.The sounds go from threatening to strangely melodic and everywhere in between but its so dark and sinister,its a tough listening to it all in one sitting.This is not a family-friendly album,nor is it a party album or something you would necessary listen to all the time.Once again hard to known what this kind of music(?) appeals to but its something truly unique even though there is other bands putting out this kind of stuff,Gnaw Their Tongues are one of the most extreme bands yet.7.5/10
