New sonic impulses…
30 March 2021
Pittsburgh‘s sound wizards ZOMBI are making all
sorts of electrifying waves for several years now.
“Their work is epic in concept, sound, and artistic approach, the masterminds
and multi-instrumentalists behind Zombi have re-imagined the architecture of
progressive rock and dynamic instrumentals by carving a niche in underground
music distinctly their own. The band’s signature sound is deceptively lush
considering its two man skeleton crew ensemble.”
Last year’s 2020 album was their first longplayer since 2015. And early this
month my ears trembled with joy on hearing how they remixed a track from
their hard-horror-core buddies Uniform and vice versa (listen here).
The party isn’t over yet. The prog-ambient-Krautrock tandem has a 5-track EP,
titled Liquid Crystal in the pipeline, waiting for a 14 May release via Relapse.
The EP’s 6-minute taster BLACK FOREST could easily be the perfect theme for
a remake of Stanley Kubrick‘s 1968 science-fiction classic 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Spooky and haunting, but also elevating and hallucinatory with moony Pink Floyd
guitar echoes and the trippy resonance of British techno act Leftfield. Psychotropic!
Ladies and Gentlemen we are floating in space.
Join the flight…
