PLAGUE ORGAN
Dutch Avantgarde black/death project from Rene Aquarius (Cryptae, Imperial Cult, Horrid Apparition, Imperial Cult, Sneezing Pus, Celestial Bodies, Dead Neanderthals, etc) and recording engineer Marlon W.. Embracing complete and near-lawless experimentalism, Plague Organ have even abandoned guitars in favor of using bass, drums, and synth to construct an abhorrent aural maze made of hallucinogenic fractals, surreal ambience, and repetitive mantras to enslave and dismantle the listener's psyche. Reference-less and formless, debut LP "Orphan" unfolds like an experimental anomaly with no beginning, end, top, bottom or confines, appearing simply as is, in the instant, and then repeating in an infinite sequence of instances until perception and reference points have been vaporized, time dissolved, and the listener annihilated into a violent trance. Embracing the most cerebral and deviant aspects of the ritualistic and profane, Plague Organ have taken key elements of extreme black and death metal (oppressive atmospheres and arrangements, unrelenting rhythmic violence, repulsive vocals) and bent them out of shape, blending them with experimental ambient, psychedelic abstractism, and free form improvisation to materialize the quintessence of cerebral aural abominations. "Orphan" is the band’s first ever release, released via Sentient Ruin on limited edition cassette tape format in late August 2020.
