Gnaw Their Tongues
The Genesis Of Light (black)
'The Genesis of Light' was recorded back in 2008 as a guitar drone experiment. The sessions, though promising, were left unfinished. Lost to the pull of other projects and the constraints of time. Years later, the recordings resurfaced on a forgotten backup drive. Their atmosphere still resonated deeply with Maurice. What started as a rediscovery became a transformation: most guitars were rerecorded, new textures and layers were woven in, and the original ideas were refined into something more immersive. The result is the completed vision that was once set aside. A work reborn from the shadows into light. In contrast to the dense, harrowing soundscapes and unrelenting darkness typical of Gnaw Their Tongues, 'The Genesis of Light' offers a starkly different vision. Where most releases revel in suffocating intensity and nightmarish textures, this album unfolds with space and a sense of slowburning radiance. Nevertheless, 'The Genesis of Light' remains steeped in the menacing aura that characterizes Gnaw Their Tongues.
