Scannoir - Through My Silence [LP] Vinyl Record

After his appearance on Frigio Allstars Vol 3, Scannoir (also half member of the amazing GOTT project) delivers his first full length EP with "Through My Silence". Emotive and raw, the style pursued blurs the lines between synth wave, EBM and techno. "Industrial Technology" opens with powerful percussion and thick strings as distant vocals recite the coming of change. "Get Ready (For Sorry)" maintains the stern drum patterns as samples and lyrics float on rumbling chords. The breadth of Scannoir's style is truly remarkable, with this amazing 5 track EP being emblematic of his range. The flip takes a different direction, the lovelorn lament of "Through My Silence" melts sweetened synth lines with cold pain-streaked words before blooming into a brooding burner. A shaky alliance between samples and vocals runs through the rhythmic assault and violent undertones of "Why Old News." The closure comes with the marching melancholy of "Alles Wird Gut", a dark and moody end to this debut EP.
