Following two self-released albums (which recently got pressed onto vinyl by Greece's Impulsive Art), "Nostril" is the big step onto the stage by this French act. And what a leap: one would be hard pressed to find something to compare this album to. Fast staccato beats? Check. Heavy guitars and screams? Check. Baroque strings and chanson samples? Check. It might help that Gautier Serre, when he's not writing tracks for Igorrr or for Whourkr (his metal side-project) works as a recording and mastering engineer, as we imagine him using the time after his shifts to juggle, experiment and play around with all kind of deranged sounds, instruments and arrangements available.
It's the variety and sheer freshness that makes Igorrr such a stand out act: ma...Read the whole post...
