Bio
Brussels-based
bass-drum "post-sludge" two-piece SUNKEN is proud to
announce the release of its first LP / post-demo "Recoil"
on Belgian net-label GodHatesGodRecords.
For
one hour of music, the listener is taken on an obscure and tense
introspective trip through calm, meditative moments and outbursts of
overwhelming fuzz and crashing cymbals. The minimal configuration
(just one bassist and one drummer, no vocals) makes it focused: it's
all about dynamics and odd rhythms... and atmosphere.
Band Members
A. - bass

Review:
Sunken
are Post-Metal/Sludge/Noise/Doom/Drone/Stoner Metal duo from Belgium
who have just released their debut album – Recoil. 60 minutes of
nightmarish and violent noisy Sludge/Doom/Stoner/Post-Metal vibes
that slowly becomes part of your sub-conscience.
Sunken
say their music appeals to: Om, Neurosis, Sunn O))), Slint
When
you bring legendary names like that into the bargain then your album
must be something special. It's a damn good job that Sunken is every
bit as good and twisted as it sounds. This Bass/Drum duo know how to
crank up the tension with some epic riffs though there isn't a guitar
in sight. How these guys get the maximum volume of riffs here is
nothing short of incredible. Sunken also has the feel of a Kowloon
Walled City album. By that I mean it's dirty, raw, angry and pissed
off as hell.
The
album should be experienced as one epic 60 minute track packed full
of twists and turns with destructive riffs that feel like a steak
going through your heart with each passing second. Yeah this album is
very special indeed. You won't hear anything like this in 2014. It's
bleak as they come for an instrumental record. Sunken don't provide a
narrative structure as such, just a collection of noises, moods and
ambient noises to provide you with a chilling experience.
Sunken
prove they are a force of nature. Nobody is going to fuck with them
on this form. Recoil is the type of album that makes you stand up and
take notice of what an incredibly daring and original vision that the
album is. It offers no easy answers just a startling ride into the
darkness where VOLUME is KING!!!
A
brilliant and thrilling album that you all need to check out now.
It's seriously that good!!! - Sunken have this album available for
free download from this link and BandCamp. My advice – Download this now. Go lie
in a dark room and experience the heavy monolithic magic of SUNKEN.
You have been warned!!!
Brilliant.
End Of.
