Video compiled by Nicolai Hildebrandt.
»Everything Is Given« captures the feeling of sudden upheaval, where the ground is pulled from beneath you. The track starts with a suspenseful metronomic beat, staccato guitars, and whispered vocals, then escalates into a noise rock assault with wailing guitars, thundering drums, and fuzzy bass. Fans of Nine Inch Nails, Metz, and The Notwist will find this song an emotional upheaval turned into a musical masterpiece, reflecting the raw reality of unexpected changes.
Jobst: “We always aim to tell an interesting story with our videos. For »Everything Is Given«, Nicolai had the idea to use old footage he discovered, which fit perfectly with part of the song. We then researched additional material to enhance the story. Nicolai created a cool collage by mixing the best parts, and I love how the segments now work together. The video remains abstract and open to interpretation, which I appreciate. I think this feeling will be common across all three of our videos.”
Death By Gong are a new band featuring Jobst M. Feit (Radare), Peter Voigtmann (SHRVL / ex-The Ocean) and Chris Breuer (Zahn, Heads.). »Descalator« is driven by a tension of heavyness and vulnerability, fusing the epic sound of Failure or Torche with the soft vocal delivery and song craftsmanship of Elliott Smith, shoegaze guitar clouds in the vein of My Bloody Valentine or DIIV and synthetic textures that could have been penned by Geoff Barrow (Portishead, Beak). A sonic exploration of human decline in all its facets.
The album was recorded by Peter Voigtmann at Die Mühle in Gyhum and mixed as well as mastered by Joe Joaquin (Slut, Van Holzen, Muff Potter). Artwork and graphic design by Fabian Bremer (AUA, Radare, Velcros).
