Giöbia Set Feb. 7 Release for Plasmatic Idol; Preorders Available; New Song Streaming
I think maybe it was last week that the news about there being a new record from Giöbia came through and I went off about how good it was? Wasn’t much longer than a week, if it was that long. In any case, I maintain the position. Good album, kind of blows the doors down from what they’ve done before in some cool ways. They’re streaming a track now to give some idea about that, and since later today I’m calling Shadow Witch‘s stream out for being early, I’ll do the same here. February is a ways away. Preorders are up though, so probably best to give people some idea what they’re in for. Though, really, it is just a glimpse of the whole.
The PR wire has it like this:
GIÖBIA new album PLASMATIC IDOL – presale starts TODAY
Today we start with the presale of the GIÖBIA first album after 4 years!!!
The brand new release is called PLASMATIC IDOL !!!
The new Giöbia album “Plasmatic Idol” is simply impressive: a collection of different sounds and atmospheres, brings the listener to another sidereal world full of dreams and mind travels. You can clearly feel the influence of certain Pink Floyd in some passages but also pinches of Italian Progressive Rock, Horror Soundtrack from 70’s movies, garage 60’s influences, US West Coast Psychedelia, and late 60’s Space Rock a la Hawkwind The production is delicate and smooth, the album flows without interruptions and the music immerses your mind in a cosmic dimension. The vintage organs and synthesizers are used in the best way possible, 8 tracks that capture your attention without distraction. Produced by Bazu the guitar player and singer of the band and Mixed and Mastered By Brett Orrison (Black Angels, Jack White) at Spaceflight Records in Austin, Texas. The Great cover album and artwork is by Metastazis.

I fucking LOVE Giobia. When I saw they were playing some European dates, I figured that was the sign for a new album, and here you go!
“…blows the doors down from what they’ve done before…” !!!! How is that possible? Are you saying it’s the greatest album of all-time?
Now if someone could properly pronounce “Giobia” for me, I’d be much obliged
