GOG will issue its ‘Ironworks’ release on August 30th (September 3rd in North America) on CD and digitally via Season of Mist. ‘Ironworks’ was recorded in a late 19th century blacksmith shop and the album is an ode to the death of the American dream. It can be pre-ordered through the Season of Mist e-shop. ‘Ironworks’ was originally only released as an LP.
Masterminded by Michael Bjella, GOG has toiled in the underground noise community for a decade, releasing records that have been widely respected and regarded as essential in experimental/noise/soundscape circles.
On the band, Michael Bjella states: “I started GOG to explore the darker sides of thought and life. I want to create things without restriction and form that can transport people and possibly make them confront their own fears. Things that are truly dark but have contrast. To borrow a line from one of my favorite artists, in case there might be harmony, then it is the harmony of accident, of chaos. I’m not trying to make harmony…”
