Today's (or yesterday's, or whatever) song of the day. Gigantic Brain is the world's only one-man sci-fi based ambient grind band, and they are the only one the world needs (trust me). However, the BRAIN has gotten "smarter" since their last release, "World", and has offered a much more interesting release with the brand new "I Swallow 16 Red Planets". This shit just fucking tears me apart. In it is more fusion of his very different genre aspirations than previously, and it works nicely for him. Distorted, other-worldly vocals over hideously robotic blast beats at the speed of HOLY SHIT with an indiscernible guitar chugging over the top will occasionally flow seamlessly (how'd he do that?) into a very calming ambient passage which might morph into an even post-rock/metal/grind(?) moment, and then right back to the beginning again. By the time you're done listening to the new album, it won't even surprise you anymore that the guy behind this music is a raging insomniac. Highly recommended, especially if you like sci-fi, take a lot of drugs, or have ADD. Which could explain why I like them so much. myspace.com/giganticbrain
