Gonga back in Studio for a few days...





















Late last week, the Gonga boys went back into State Of Art Studio's to record some demo's. The object of the project was to simply re-group and see what came naturally... After 3 days and a few mini-disks worth of music the result was extremely positive. The new material we heard pushes boundaries a lot further then we were expecting. Obviously the down-tuned classic Gonga riffs were present; but there was also a lot of instrumental experimentation and almost a different energy. All kinds of comparisons were being banded around (mainly from me it has to be said), including early Soundgarden, Fantomas, The Melvins, maybe even a bit of Ulver..  Hopefully i can persuade the chaps to give us a few mins worth of music to put on here.. keep checking back over the next week or so...
