Board Up the House

On Genghis Tron's vivid palette of sound and texture, giant riffs and frenetic beats make perfect sense next to haunting vocal melodies and moments of subtle beauty. The bands long-awaited Relapse debut 'Board Up the House' spills over with eleven tracks combining the extremes of modern rock music into a totally unique, completely unforgettable album experience unlike any other.

On their first record for the Relapse label, this Philly-based band broadens their experimental metal/grindcore sound-- no drums, plenty of electronics-- to allow for more conventional songs.

And while there are certain elements of Genghis Tron's music that certainly fall under the extreme metal category, the group is one of the few that appear to be incorporating sonic experiments into their white noise.
