Liquify - Hypnotic Magic Space Trip (2024)

The sixth album from this one-man-band from USA.

Tanner did the bass, guitars, synths, programmed drums and the vocals on this album.

Liquify was Tanner's space rock project and the first five albums is space rock albums. Primitive space rock as being the sole musician means lack of resources.... but still space rock.

There has been not so nice developments in his life, according to his Bandcamp page, and he felt he had to express himself and his experiences in the form of a musical expression. A good choice indeed and I applaud him for that.

Hence this album and a radical change of music.

Some of this album is very angry. Very angry in the form of black metal. Black metal with the usual rasping vocals and angry music.

There is also some more ambient music here and some dark psych rock.

This is an angry album. A kind of a self-medication without the chemicals. I therefore respect the sentiments here.  

The music is pretty poor as the black metal stuff comes across as poorly crafted. The rest of this album is not much better, but still marginally better. I am not impressed by the music here.

1.5 points
