CALLITHUMPIAN:
refers to a band of discordant instruments or a noisy parade. It was first noted in America in 1836.
"With references to profound philosophical esotericism, references to
deep intellectual phenomena such as ego death and an all around quirky
cynical take on day to day banality, it seems that Gnaugmn [sic] undertake in
the similar crusade that similar experimental arts have before them,
finding answers to the great questions of the universe through the
undying exploration of sound... approaches the action of exploration of sound with a childlike
playfulness, and then wraps that in the cynicism that existing in the
capitalist west can be when everything feels so detached from whats
actually important to the spirit."

Almost a year after their ground-breaking IPSOGRAPHIC on Ice Age Productions, and mere moments after their continuing experiments in Synchromystical Improvisations through Time and Space, GNAUMGN once again drag us through an avant-tarde journey of free-exploration and silly noises and deep trance-states and grating cacophony. If you like that kind of thing, well, here is some more of it. They have, for now, absolutely no plans of stopping any time soon.
