Glaukom Synod are a band from France that plays a mixture of dark-electro industrial and grindcore and this is a review of their 2014 ep "Covered In Semen And Slime" which was released by Visceral Circuitry Records.
A very dark, raw and primitive industrial/noise sound starts off the ep along with a great amount of fast programmed beats and the music also brings in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the music also brings in a great amount of ebm and dark electro elements as well as avoiding any use of traditional instruments.
As the ep progresses they start bringing in cover tunes with the first one being Napalm Death's "Thrown Away" which they turn more into a dark industrial song while also having aggressive vocals and a brief use of spoken word parts and fast gabber style beats take the place of blast beats before doing their own take on Led Zeppelin's "Dazed And Confused" which also sounds nothing like the original and they also bring in 2 more Napalm Death songs, Bollt Thrower's "World Eater and one of their original tracks.
Glaukom Synod plays mostly a dark style of electro industrial and they take Naplam Death, led Zeppelin and Bolt Thrower songs and strip theme off the guitars and vocals to add their own musical style into the covers, the production has a very dark and raw sound while most of the songs contain little to no lyrics.
In my opinion Galaukom Synod are a very great sounding mixture of electro-industrial and grindcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Iron Tongue" "Thrown Away" and "World Eater". 8 out of 10.
