Review
Immobilism is the third album from Instrumental Post-Metallers ORGAN where they demonstrate a wealth of intense Doom & Gloom surroundings that manifests into a bleak cinematic style of music drawing upon the likes of PELICAN, RUSSIAN CIRCLES, MASTODON and BONGRIPPER in the most of unexpected of places. With a brooding progressive sound that develops into stripped back soundscapes with small moments of Psychedelic and Kinetic musical energy transforms into a heavier and aggressive sound that comes fully into focus on the excellent opening track of Tenebrism.
There’s a sense of HORROR that you can feel throughout the album and some of the song titles give that impression that allows the listener to fully get accustomed to the dark musical surroundings that ORGAN brings to the party. The music is painfully slow and opaque at the best of the times but the droned out and distorted environment instantly takes hold with violent Ambient textures forming that allows ORGAN to experiment with a more “OUT OF THIS WORLD” sound that becomes quite “LOVECRAFTIAN” in places. The Post-Rock vibes transform into areas of Post-Doom and almost Post-Black Metal atmospherics especially on tracks such as Confessor, Devouring and Dogma delivering some of the most thought-provoking sounds on the whole album.
The album is painfully slow which allows the listener to fully take in the dark progressive themes, melodies and sudden shifts into vast areas of cerebral Post-Metal grooves that leave you questioning your own reality. ORGAN undergo a creative shift on the later stages of the record which allows brief pockets of Stoner Metal, Post-Hardcore and Noise Rock to suddenly appear that gives Immobilism a deeply unpredictable grounded energy.
Immobilism works best when it merges twisted reality and nightmarish based soundscapes for a record that feels inspired by the films of David Cronenberg, David Lynch and Dario Argento with a free-flowing soundtrack narrative being one of the best aspects that I’ve taken away from the whole album. Every note is played superbly with ORGAN proving what great musicians they actually are especially compared to their outstanding 2018 album Eterno.
ORGAN have delivered a uniquely dark take on the realm of Instrumental Post-Metal that perhaps leaves many questions unanswered but you can’t deny the whole incredible audio and gloomy sonic experience the album fully delivers with real dramatic intent.
Excellent and Highly Recommended.
