Take a Journey of Soul Searching with God Body Disconnect
We join God Body Disconnect once again on the journey through the miasma of the afterlife, or rather, the Between - the space between life and death. “Spiral of Grief” is the eighth full-length album from composer Bruce Moallem, and for those of us who have traversed these ethereal afterlife soundscapes, this is an auditory homecoming, of sorts. GBD has a distinct style of presentation with the albums, feeling interconnected - as if part of one larger story - and yet each stands on its own, and this newest album stands as the same.
As Spiral of Grief opens, we are greeted by our narrator friend, the same way as the albums previous, and we then we are carried away by the sounds of the standard God Body Disconnect “wall of ambience” of which composer Bruce Moallem is known. No other artist in the scene of the soundscape ambience has the panache for the indifferent languor of the soundscapes quite like him. His sounds are not intimidating, nor are they imposing any sort of message of positivity or any scheme or agenda of sound - these sounds simply exist, and we, as listeners, can just drift along the tides of chords and enjoy. The themes for this particular story seem darker, more melancholic, yet the scords and ambience that blanket the listener are once again seemingly indifferent to the emotions of those of us who listen. The music is hypnotic and captivating in its bliss, and just as we are about to escape into a blissful miasma, carried away into
Spiral of Grief is a sonic continuation of a story begun years ago by God Body Disconnect, and it once again displays the ambient brilliance of the artist with deft weaves of spoken word narrative, field recordings, and the blanketing comforts of the textures of ambience. Spiral of Grief is available in CD Digipak and digital formats on the Cryo Chamber Bandcamp page.
