Blind With Rain marks the final evolution of Aaron Geis' musical vision. The debut E.P. titled, The Chemical Window, completed in September 2005, cemented his art with a new and experimental sound that is immediately both tender and severe. Its long-awaited, 2008 follow-up, A Transmission of Data in the Static, assaults new ground in the Industrial Rock and Electro-Industrial genres.
The stirring new album explores the infinite stagnance of timeless static across twelve all-new tracks. This collection, three-years in the making, has been described as "dreams of ghosts traveling along an immersive post-industrial, digital landscape." Lyrical themes of desperation, loss, and finding one's place while feeling trapped in this digitized world are rampant, luring the listener into an introspective otherworld that threatens to fade from existence at any moment.
"...the music here is nothing short of excellent, with clever beat programming (not in the pain-in-the-ass virtuoso sense of the word), great use of reversed vocal samples (see, even the oldest recipes can bring good results when you're talented), and there's a level of melody-crafting I hadn't heard in ages." - Industrial Nation magazine
With a name inspired by Dante Gabriel Rossetti's nineteenth-century poem, "The Portrait," Blind With Rain carries its origins well with the careful marriage of classic, industrial themes and pulsating instrumental pieces with an enormously broad selection of experimental layers and vicious hooks. The sound is at once distantly familiar and distinctly unique with shattering vocal tracks that pierce the subconscious and demand its submission.
The Blind With Rain project follows the limited release of 2001's Early Morning, a collection of instrumental works dating from 1998. That year also saw a third collaboration between Geis and Chris Bentley for The Summon Room, a spoken word effort featuring pieces from several underground artists as well as a performance by Jarboe. Geis and Bentley had worked together previously in Children of Catharsis, and later across different incarnations of Detroit's Plastik Acid through 1997.
Aaron Geis is an Ohio native who resides in Baltimore. Blind With Rain's studio efforts, "The Chemical Window" E.P. and A Transmission of Data in the Static, were mastered by Tom Baker and released in September 2005 and 2008.
Thanks for requesting to be a friend. I really do love your music. You were correct to think that I would being a hard core NIN fan. Your songs are awesome!!!! Look forward to seeing you play live sometime. Keep up the hard work!!! Your new friend ~J
Aaron thanks for taking the time to stop by my page...and to notice that I'm a huge fan of Trent's...I definitely dig your songs...looking forward to getting to know you and staying in touch...
Well very very impressed. I hear those influences you took and made you own great sound very impressed. All the songs are perfect. I really look forward to more would be great you and NIN I'm so bummed I missed the show here but saw Peter Murphy the other night.. I tried to hit you up on twitter but the app seems to not work for me it said I need to get and I'm not to sure what that is but got you on face and lastFM the song on there is my latest song I created the video and music drums and guitars first song in a long long time after 2 neck operations it's nice to be able to play the drums again and guitar after all these years. I also have a few really really old 80's songs on myspace.com/thechabha ever need any 3D 2D animation and video post production done let me know. You have a awesome rest of the week and thanks was so worth listening to. Ear Candy!
Indeed! I didn't know what I was expecting from that movie but what I got was far from it. The bodies in the wall still kinda haunt me. Disturbing thought, smelly insulation. I am afraid to look in my walls now.
The remake was okay, but the ones I recommend are 1 and 2 of the original series, 3 had nothing to do with the plots of 1-2, 4 was not bad, 5 and 6 were kinda letdownish, H20 tried to redeem, and was pretty good, and Resurrection, avoid that at all costs unless you wanna just watch all the movies
Haha, it can get lonely perhaps, but it lets you have COMPLETE control over your music. I'm thinking I'm gonna go ahead and release my projects in the next week or two, and they're a lot more homemade than yours, hah. However, I'm hoping it gets the point across. We'll see. I'm real hesitant on releasing it right now, but we'll see. I hope you had a nice weekend too.
