About gruntsplatter

Gruntsplatter, came to be in 1994 after about a year of experimenting. It has always been a maleable creature that hovers in the gray area between abrasive noise and dark ambient.

Mood and depth of composition have continually been of the first importance for Gruntsplatter. By mixing the harsher elements and their details with the more atmospheric elements I feel I am best able to acheive what I am working toward. My intent has always been, and continues to be, to make something evocative and subtle in its detail.

Influenced primarily by my mood and immediate state of mind I also draw, somewhat esoterically, from literature, history and the death rattles and rituals of our eroding gene pool.

Thus far material has seen release by several labels, an incomplete discography is below... for a full run down visit the official website

"Bisect..." w/ Torture Chamber - MC - lmt. 100 - Crionic Mind 1995
"Split" w/ Ruhr Hunter - CD - lmt 1,000 - Glass Throat Recordings 1998
"Split" w/. Slowvent - CD - lmt 500 - Crionic Mind 1998
"Pest Maiden" - 7"/MC - lmt 250/50 - Troniks 1999
"The Death Fires" - CD - lmt to 1000 - Crowd Control Activities 2000
"Chronicling The Famine" - CD - lmt to 1000 - Desolation House 2002
"The Organ Harvest..." - CDR - lmt to 100 - Audio Savant 2004
"Pest Maiden" - CD - lmt to 1000 - PacRec/Troniks 2004
"The Passions Of A Cripple" - 12" - lmt to 300 - Force Of Nature 2005
"The Eulogists Assembly" - CD - Eibon Records 2005
"The Aberrant Laboratory" CD - Dark Vinyl Records (February 2006)

I have also collaborated with a few others over the years, those projects include, Circadian (w/ Nothing), Triage (w/ Ruhr Hunter), Blunt Force Trauma (w/ Deathpile) and Umbra (w/ Murderous Vision). Gruntsplatter has always, and will always, consist of only myself. In addition I also run Crionic Mind Records & Distro and have co-edited Worm Gear Zine each since 1995. I have also done a fair amount of graphic design work for various folks, it's currently in desperate need of an update, but some examples can be seen at Crionic Media

Deison	Nov 29 2009 9:39 PM DEISON \| KK NULL -INTO (CD,OUT NOW!) "INTO" CD is now available from Silentes Records and distributed by Final Muzik, Audioglobe, Tesco and Soleimoon! Penetrating “Hi-tech” music, always on the border between sound,silence and noise… Splinters of sonic fragments, buzzings, electronic hisses, pulsations, hypnotic loops, ambient textures, sudden rays of light… A kaleidoscope of syntethic sounds and digital glitches, in a universe dominated by binary codes, that evolves through the cold-hearted control of sophisticated algorhythmic mutations programmed by human entities that already reached a level beyond the borders of our earthly knowledge… www.deison.net \| www.kknull.com
