Geist - Blueprints To Moderate Sedation

 

 

Geist - Blueprints To Moderate Sedation
Self-released 2023
Sludge Metal
Rated: ******

Imagine you're a Young Medieval Knight: Brash, cocky. fearless. You've trained hard and this is YOUR day! The Princess dropped her lace and you took up the gauntlet, visions of a castle and lands swimming in your head... Your heart sinks when the King beckons forth his Champion - The Black Knight: Immovable, Irrepressible, Infallible. 78 recorded deaths in the arena. But, it's YOUR day...defeat him and you will be Legend! Taking up your lance, you aim with precision and career down the jousting course, confident that You will out! Ever nearer he thunders towards you, hell-bent on your demise. You see the weak point under his armor and steady yourself for the killing blow... but, He swerves... the lance misses and you have a split-second of total horror as you see the mace unfurl from its chain... next thing you know, you're gurgling your last rasping breaths with a crater where your face once was. The Princess and most of the crowd look away, sickened and as the light dims on your world, You realize your folly. GEIST is The Black Knight. "Blueprints To Moderate Sedation" is the mace...

Sludge, Grind
Rated: *****

Geist, a collective of Anger Management Consultants from NE England, were let loose in a smash room. The resulting cacophony was recorded during this session. A terrifying, hate-fuelled spleen vent - a feral weaponizing of instrument and throat, relentless and vociferous: 'Unnatural Selection' starts like a telepath's nightmare - an eerie, cloying cluster of voices and feedback summoning Dread then spewing brutal staccato riffage like a swarm of yellowjackets on the rampage! "Western Medicine" is a flesh-stripping tawse of pain and vehemence. 'Sleep Deprived' is the perfect antidote to the Deprivation Tank...lightning fast, loud-as-fuck and lethal! Every single ounce of venom has been wrung from the fangs on this album and delivered intravenously... A chilling monolith to Misanthropy. The Authorities have been informed...
