Orphan / Amber Grey

VINYL FORMAT. Orphan, the latest release from Gridlink, possesses the same energy, aggression, and overall focus of its predecessor Amber Grey, the songs contained herein provide an ever denser and more nuanced musical assault combining short bursts of accelerated thrash, blinding passages of helicopter blasting, monochromatic smears of near-noise, and the alien howls of singer Jon Chang. In a realm of perpetrators veiled by smokescreen tactics of studio trickery and trapped in herd minded musical and socio-political maneuvering, Gridlink provide a much needed counterpoint in which sincerity, determination, and artful execution triumph finally and fully. The LP version of Orphan is a 180 gram, 45rpm vinyl which contains both Orphan and Gridlink's previous album, Amber Grey. It also comes with a download code for 320kbps MP3s of both albums and "karaoke" versions of all tracks.
