Ggu:ll

Ggu:ll is the vessel of the lost. A means of staring into the empty sockets of suffering. Enduring the lack of meaning and ground. Enduring defeat and loss. Riffs are very basic yet eloquent and add plots and nuances to the great narratives the drums and bass dictate.

Ggu:ll is a four-piece blackened doom band from Tilburg, The Netherlands, formed in 2009. They originated from the chaos of noise and kept adding the deep layers and combined with doom. This resulted in their debut album ‘Dwaling’ released in 2016 on Ván records. The album gained international recognition, leading to shows at Roadburn, Le guess who?, Neurotic Deathfest, Archerontic Arts, Soul Crusher. Sharing the stage with bands like Bongripper, Primitive Man and Inter Arma.

For their new record ‘Ex Est’ Ggu:ll extracted the coldness of black metal and added that to the mix. In 7 songs, they present a wide spectrum of heavy intense music. Shifting from blackened doom, to heavy psychedelica back to noise infused torture drones.

The album title ‘Ex Est’ refers to the state after being. The realization that all that is, will some day not be. All is doomed to end up as a ruin of itself. Herein lies the search for meaning in existence, despite the realization that life itself is meaningless. Artist Manuel Tinnemans visualized this theme in the exclusive cover art accompanying this release.

Ex Est was released by Consouling Sounds on October 21st 2022 on colored vinyl and cd.
