Glitch shattered samples, ultra-distorted Blaster Beam and the punk-rock drumming of Dave Nato (4th Wall, Anti-Nowhere League), all entangled in a hammer fight to the death.
Angelspit took the old-school Industrial approach in making “Art Imitates War” by sampling metallic sounds and ruining them with distortion pedals.
Their six-foot aluminum Blaster Beam was also decimated, creating a wall of mayhem with its 11 low frequency piano wires.
“The music came from distorting smashed metal. When you hit metal it sings, but it screams when you distort it. It would be fair to say that I co-wrote the track with chaos and distortion. The lyrics cover the decay of the middle class, denial, drug abuse, domestic abuse, and mind-numbing social media telling you that everything will be OK if you stay plugged in. ‘Art Imitates War‘ is an experiment in sonic brutality.”
– Zoog Von Rock, Angelspit.
‘Art Imitates War‘ is now on all streaming services and Bandcamp. Angelspit’s 11th album “The Bastard Gods” is due for release in 2023.
