GOD IN A CONE – Agrypnia
Independent
GOD
IN A CONE is a solo project of the musician Nikos Marinos (MADLEAF, IOLA 11,
SLITHERUM) who here wants to experiment with different musical styles and
sounds faithful to the truth that music has no boundaries. So, with my little
knowledge I will try to give you a taste of what you will listen to in this
work….
Agrypnia
is a Greek word which literally means to be awake during the whole night, but
also it refers to night rituals of the orthodox Christian church. I believe
that Nikos had the second term in his mind, since music in a way can be
ritualistic. If you listen to the album you will realize that the whole
philosophy of the songs here is to create an atmosphere that will capture the
mind of the listener.
Most
of the times when we use the term atmosphere our mind goes to dark and
pessimistic music, but GOD IN A CONE offer to the listener a variety of
emotions and this makes the whole listening of the album an interesting
experience.
Musically
now the band manages to combine elements from electro and gothic rock along
with pop music and even black metal elements. You might find all these strange
and difficult to combine, but I think that a creative mind and also a talented
musician can achieve that and I think that Nikos has both of these elements.
All
in all “Agrypnia” is a very interesting release which I truly enjoyed and if
you search for a different musical experience that knows no boundaries, then I
would propose it to you….
