JGrzinich - Equal and Distant Lines

And now, a brief detour from loud Japanese rock, into heavy textural drone music by American (though Estonia-based) composer/film-maker/installation-artist John Grzinich, whose name is not a typo. Grzinich's music is as difficult to describe as his name is to pronounce, which is why I like it so much. He layers acoustic sounds, field recordings (though nothing so easy to pin to an actual event), and who the hell knows what else, but it's better to not get caught up in how-is-he-doing-that and simply soak it all in. If you like Seth Nehil, Murmer., Lethe, Toy Bizarre or Giancarlo Toniutti, then you will bathe in this album many times. It came out in 2005 as a CD in a hardbound book cover on Cloud of Statics, a short-lived but stellar label run by MNortham.
