Lung Knots to Release Golden Dirges, Molten Larynges Vinyl on Tartarus Records

Posted in Whathaveyou on April 28th, 2021 by JJ Koczan

This album was released in February and is massively destructive charred industrial whatnot, just as harsh as you please. I know precious little about Lung Knots as a project, who’s behind it — seems like one person, as many such outfits are — and how long it’s been going, etc., but the word from the PR wire that Tartarus has LP preorders up I’m taking as a reminder to self to find out all that kind of stuff in addition to further exposing my skull to Golden Dirges, Molten Larynges, which is wonderfully claustrophobic from what of it I’m hearing so far.

For those vinyl-averse — and I know you exist — CDs and tapes are out, respectively, through Trepanation Recordings and Total Dissonance Worship. The stream from Bandcamp you’ll find at the bottom of this post, if you’re feeling brave.

Lung Knots – Golden Dirges, Molten Larynges
( Blackened | Noise | Harsh | Industrial )

Lung Knots is a vessel of auditory violence whose sole purpose is to exist in this place and moment in time. It is an overwhelming form of aural terror conveyed through primal and mechanical means, conjoining visceral matter of an organic origin with that of an abiotic one. These together fabricate an entity focused on the seething aspects of interminable dread and the humiliation of flesh. Lung Knots’ essence can be summed up as the channeling of hate and disgust towards man and its progeny, and the very construct of humanity in its current, turbulent state, by weaving together textures that vary from harsh noise to black metal and carefully crafted sound design-like sonical scapes, and everything falling in between.

The territory from where these scraps are gathered is a profound, hopeless, and lightless hole, familiar to every single being in one sense or another. Golden Dirges, Molten Larynges is a meditative work uniting the mentioned stylistical leanings by methodical yet momentarily improvised, and above all, uncompromising means. While the instrumental execution is composed and executed with precision, the vocal and lyric territory is delivered in the heat of the moment, to denote the raw emotion and agony in as primitive manner as possible. The result is a rewarding and enjoyable effort in a rather grotesque sense, as while the atmosphere is highly tangible and immersive, it’s equally painful and unpleasant to take in. Golden Dirges, Molten Larynges was released on CD and Tape through Trepanation Recordings and Total Dissonance Worship in February, with a limited run of vinyl coming up via Tartarus Records.
