Meet GNOM, the forthcoming solo project of Anders Bach, and hear how an ethereally ambient album developed into a noisy and extreme musical expression shaped by tragedy. Confronting grief, his approach to making music went from intellectual and subtle to musically clear and deeply personal. His album “Bitumenic” releases June 9th.

To begin with, the first sketches for the album were spiritual and abstract. By first adding physical drums, he connected to a feral instinct and a melodic emotionality. He worked with Fire-Toolz aka. Angel Marcloid, further driving the album in a direction resonating with Anders' explosive emotional proces. It became an album that emphasizes and embraces the pleasure part of "guilty pleasure", expressing joy in the face of fear or even death.
