Tsukimono -
"Great Blood"

Tsukimono is swedish guitar maestro Johan Gustavsson. Gustavsson has released about twenty records since 2002, that range from abstract glitch-pop to dark dronemetal. But with this new album for HWEM he presents one of his harshest, most uncompromising works to date. GREAT BLOOD is a journey full of feedback, distorted sine waves, and maximum frequency guitar workouts. Still, it is a beautiful piece of music, with Gustavssons brilliant sense of atmosphere and melody shining through the hard surface.
