GNAW THEIR TONGUES (NED)
REEKING PAINED AND SHUDDERING Paradigm Records
Written by Dave Waite on Wednesday 28 November, 2007. Last updated on Wednesday 28 November, 2007
Trying to even come to terms with the complete and utter sonic headfuck that is Gnaw Their Tongues’ second full length “Reeking Pained and Shuddering” is most certainly no easy feat. This whitewash of stunningly composed black/noise/experimental music is one of the best examples of just how far you can stretch the boundaries of the extreme into one mesmerizing and complete whole, keeping a certain degree of musicality that escapes many in this ever-fascinating genre.
Basing his sound around twisted hypnotic rhythms, blood-curdling screams, deranged samples and more fuzzy distortion than a thousand lo-fi black metal bands combined, the atmosphere Gnaw Their Tongues create is akin to being tortured for an eternity by every demon in every culture the world over. Opener “Blood Spills Out Of Everything I Touch” pulls you violently into a void of such total blackness that it can be at first quite overwhelming and most definitely tough to stomach. Distorted ritual drum patterns pound underneath layers of grinding noise and swirling synths that generate an almost overbearing sense of the extreme that goes way beyond the otherworldly. “Utter Futility Of Creation” and the aptly-titled “Nihilism, Tied Up and Burning” carry on in much the same tradition by tightening the noose and heightening the sense that there is something really fucking evil lurking behind you, forcing your mind to enter into a world you most definitely don’t want to be yet feel strangely compelled to travel at the same time.
Delivering a sound that will appeal to those who worship the likes Leviathan, Wold or Khanate, Gnaw Their Tongues have ultimately created an album that captivates, haunts and terrifies all at the same time, while maintaining a stance of originality that is his and his alone. Released in a stunning A5 format with artwork done by sole member Mories “Reeking Pained And Shuddering” is without a doubt one of the greatest albums you can and will ever purchase. Stunning.
