Back in time and find the early days, return to the future and you can find a nostalgic atmosphere on the music, the new mix-tapes are digitals and the music is more experimental. After Post Traumatic Stress (2010), Grooving In Green worked hard for make something more experimental, the Groove Goth on new retro style.
Stranglehold is the name of the latest album of Grooving In Green, more slow, more rhythmic, more Groove Goth. Breathless is the title of the first song, without voices, no verses, only the sound of the guitars, bass and drums what reminds the early days of the goth, on vintage sounds we can recognize the evolution of the Groove Goth, reinventing the goth, reinventing the music. Stranglehold, the second song, gives a strange sense of melancholy, guttural sounds from the emblematic voice of Tron are the perfect excuse to listen this album from the beginning to the end. For moments we can remind bands like The Caves or Immortal (Goth), but with the special music touch of this English band.
Fat Cats, the danceable song of the album is a combination of the new wave and the old wave of Goth music, the lyrics on this song gives to the album a new perspective of the knowledge Groove Goth. A New Vessel, give us since the beginning a hard but rhythmic song, a different but familiar sound. Deepest bass lines are the particular signet of the song, we can listen the game voices of Tron again, and this is an extra point of the song, a hard song with hard lyrics and hard voices. The work of the guitars second by second is maybe the best work of the band.
Lucid, if you remember the Chameleons and The Ancestry, maybe you’ll love this song, slow and clear, but don’t be afraid, is not a clone song, is just a new step of the goth music, you can listen the retro style of this album since the first second, the lyrics reflects as well the new position of the band, an emblematic song of this album, clear and logical on a confused world.
Gain Ground, drums machine, guitars and deepest bass lines on the beginning prepare our senses for the upcoming experience, a new song with the particular Groove sound, again the work of Tron on the vocals and the correct guitars give us a finest song. Die Alone, nothing is enough for this band, the seventh song of this album is a slow song, you have to turn off the lights and enjoy the magic travel around the groove atmospheres.
Beneath The Surface, the dance time is here, this is another reason to say that this album is a masterpiece, slow and hard, high and deep. For moments you can remember the old times on an English pub like the Barrel Organ, drinking a cold beer and listening a young band with a strong history, the legend continues on this song.
More News On Nothing, "... I been seating on my sofa...", this is the order, you have to be alone for enjoy this song, the first demo of this album (released on 2011), and the perfect pretext to listen this album. Hard lyrics on the spectacular work of Pete, Si and Tron, we can remember the first time when we listened a song named POST TRAUMATIC STRESS, and this is another example of the personal view point of the life of this band.
King Mediocre, if you can read the band bio of this band you can find many bands on the influence section, on the beginning we can listen a NIN influence, but hey, this is not a clone song, this is the singular and groovetastic sound of this band with the particular view point of the life, the echo effects on this song and the guitar solos make this song one of the best songs of this album.
Even the Light, you don’t need another album, another song, another band, you just need this album, this song and this band to say Groove Goth, the end of the album is not the end of all, is the beginning of all. You can listen a song with all the groove sound of the band, with some dance beats we can listen a memorable song, the last and the first.
Stranglehold is the album that represents the return of Grooving In Green to the alternative scene, Groove atmospheres, a complicated but formidable work of Pete, Si and Tron, the team of teams. With all the song we have a masterpiece, the best album of the band. The future is not known but the present is Stranglehold, the present is a band named Grooving In Green, a band with a short life but with a big future. The legend continues...
