GLASGOW COMA SCALE

Glasgow Coma Scale is an indicator of the state of consciousness. Glasgow Coma Scale is a German post-rock instrumental stoner trio acting in layers like the scale to determine the state of consciousness; they play, play, record, mix and take the best of their production. Formed in 2011 this 3rd album still sounds in the heavy metal psyche doom like Isis, Caspian, Tides from Nebula, Toundra or Russian Circles. Even more like Mono, Red Sparowes, Leech and the Godspeed you! Black emperor and Explosions in the Sky.

'Orion' superb ambient and progressive stoner entry, space voice behind, take the time you will only hear it at the end of the album; it starts with a classic prog-rock instrumental that sets fire to the powder, simple but effective. The more melodic and electronic 'Magik' continues the trance, same theme with a brutal and nervous final crescendo. "Underskin" bis repeats the first pieces, rhythmic guitar more present to maintain the trance and give coherence to the sound of the group. Sirens 'with Peter's metronomic drums set in motion this faster tempo track, soaring finale taking our ears high into limbo. 'Day 366' with Piotr and Marek providing the lineage, the bass reminding me from afar that of The Cure, closer to us that of God Is An Astronaut and other Monos, an elegant ballet of notes. "One must fall" with the only track where choirs are heard, voices that come to end this album in the pure vein of the post.

This group goes to darker lands while keeping passages full of emotion and a few fleeting voices increasing our alertness, voices that could be more present. A continuous musical atmosphere that makes him enter a stoner- desert-post concept mode, bewitching, repetitive but hypnotic.
