The debut release from Fear Falls Burning...

vidnaObmana reinvents himself within this new persona. Fascinated by the extreme tonalities the electric guitar can produce, vidnaObmana transformed himself into Fear Falls Burning in order to record this debut album.

"He Spoke in Dead Tongues" is truly an amazing statement in tone and harmony, centered around the real-time performances on the electric guitar.
Through the unique wiring of the guitar pedal effects, its single performed guitarchord multiplies and shifts over time into dense and trance-inducing walls of sound. A spectrum of sound that sounds deliberately old and monotonous in reference to the vintage and replica effects. All clicks, ticks and cracks are part of the real-time performance.

With this double album on Projekt/Ikon Fear Falls Burning succeeds in performing a new language in music that cleverly delves into that fine musical line where lo-fi, instrumental post-rock, avant-garde, experimental and industrial meet...
