Genre: Industrial

6 untitled tracks

Erthad are industrial, plain and simple. That doesn’t mean that the album isn’t interesting or worth listening too, far from it, but Gma is a no frills approach to the genre. Don’t let the odd and somewhat out of place cover art fool you, Erthad construct solid industrial music worthy of attention. Gma is comprised of six songs totalling 41 minutes. Erthad have done an excellent job of maintaining a consistent feel throughout, making Gma flow very nicely.

Gma transports the listener aboard a strange vessel, on an unknown planet deep into uncharted space. You are in the colony of a strange, insect-like race of creatures alien to you. Walking about the ship, you hear its heartbeat, the static buzzing and humming; the pulse of unknown life resonating in chasms so deep the bottom is unfathomable. You feel the alien presence all around you, watching you, monitoring you, and tracking your movements. In the distance you hear their cries, their distorted obscure language calling you to them. You travel deeper into the ship, moving towards the center, closer and closer to your strange host. Their cries become increasingly louder as you reach the heart of the ship and come face to face with these obscure beings. They take hold of you, their touch chilling your body. You scream out but nobody is around to help you. Slowly passing into unconsciousness amidst their cries, your journey ends.
