Lyrics:
Crystal clear
Just like envy
All our skies turning green
Rising wind
Bristling trauma
Search for shelter
Heed the storm
Crystal clear
Like an obsession
Darkened clouds
Air so cold...
And all that we wanted
And all of those plans
Small and cramped
Head for the bottom
Now crystal clear
I am Envy
Lacking trauma,
I’m the storm
Wasted hours
Turned to seasons
Now a lifetime...
What to show?
Rest my head now
On the frigid glass
Condensation
Watch the landscape pass
Steal some shut eye
But time won’t give itself back
...And all of those plans
GENGHIS TRON make their return with their highly anticipated new album, Dream Weapon! The band’s first new studio outing in over a decade, GENGHIS TRON’s Hamilton Jordan and Michael Sochynsky are now joined by two new collaborators: vocalist Tony Wolski and Sumac/Baptists drummer Nick Yacyshyn. Together, the lineup perfects the unique mix of extreme rock and electronic music GENGHIS TRON has pioneered over their storied career. A melding of hypnotic rhythms and densely layered synth soundscapes, Dream Weapon was recorded and produced alongside long-time collaborator Kurt Ballou at God City Studio in Salem, Massachusetts, with additional production and engineering by Ben Chisholm (Chelsea Wolfe) and JJ Heath (Rain City Recorders).
Lyrically and conceptually, Dream Weapon picks up where Board Up The House left off.
“That album’s closing track, ‘Relief,’ was about how humans have become a burden to the planet, and how Earth will endure long after we’re gone,” Jordan explains. “There is sadness at the end, but some relief-and beauty-too. Dream Weapon is, loosely, an album-length meditation on that theme.
From the ethereal, almost robotic vocal phrasings accompanying the industrial attack of “Pyrocene,” to the chaotic, pulse-pounding drumming acrobatics and cyclical guitar patterns in the album’s triumphant title track, Dream Weapon is not just a nod to GENGHIS TRON’s celebrated past as a metal/progressive/experimental outfit. The new album redefines what these genres, sounds, and musical elements can achieve. Dream Weapon is a record that captures GENGHIS TRON at a matured, focused state; the ebbs and flows of the album are just as hard-hitting as they are dreamy, soaring, and meditative.
Seasoned GENGHIS TRON listeners will find Dream Weapon to be both excitingly fresh and reassuringly familiar. “Though it sounds a bit different than our previous albums, I don't think we approached Dream Weapon any differently than the others,” Jordan explains. “Michael and I take years to write and trade demos, with about 80% of our ideas landing on the cutting-room floor. Once we have a rough song idea we both like, we write dozens of drafts of a song over months before we end up with a final demo.”
“I think one difference in our approach for this album was that we had a strong sense from the outset of what kind of vibe we wanted to create,” Sochynsky adds. “Something more cohesive, meditative and hypnotic."
Through the album’s inventiveness and rejuvenated approach, Dream Weapon marks another bold step forward in the wildly creative career of GENGHIS TRON, and cements the band's legacy of groundbreaking, genre-defying innovation
Wow, quite the evolution since Cloak of Love in 2005. Loved them then and still digging them now. Great song to toke to and then go for a bike ride.
Loving it. The Krautrock style drums in the second half fucking rule
Came here to say it had big time "Neu -- Hallogallo" vibes in the second half. Love it!
Yes! They smooth it out a bit more but they pivot into the harder realms like nothing!! How!?
Remixes coming?
I was completely lost for 10 minutes. Very cerebral
This is nice and kraut-y, I’m really digging it. Getting Tangerine Dream/Neu vibes - h a r d
Having been a fan since DMM, I can still really appreciate the way they’ve widened their sonic scope for this record (at least how it appears based off this single)
Yo, that's EXACTLY what I thought. I was trying to consider if it was necessarily taking from a more recent synthwave tradition, or if they were in some way indebted to the older German acts for this record. It sounds very progressive in the way that earlier stuff was.
good painting music. going to be fun to lose yourself during the album while doing art. can't wait!
This evolution was so unexpected. I am blown away by the three songs I’ve heard. I cannot wait to hear the rest of this record.
Thank you for letting us hear a new song. I can't remember the last time I pre-ordered a record. But hey, this is Genghis Tron with Nick on the kit. And Wolski is killing it.
Not what I was expecting but still cool. Buy for sure.
incredible
definetly gonna be a different cup of tea altogether but sounds like a good ride in it's own regard so far
I'm so glad it will be. It's a different journey than 15 years ago.
23 years ago.. fuuuck.
@@ryanwelch4284 more like 13 years ago actually
@@SkaptRafu yea, that. 2008
KOOL!
So glad I bought the LP. ❤
Followed you from the start, better than ever lads! Excited
>when your own record label runs ads halfway through your song
You have to be in your 30s to know whats going on here lol
Im 35. still dont know and i listen to alot of electro stuff lol
@@A.i.Riverz i think you have to have emo, nintendocofe in your library lol
Im 23 c: i know what's up
Ummm more like 40’s.
50’s as well
Board up the planet
HELL YEA!!! Will Defiantly be buying this to support the band!!!!!!! KILLER STUFF GUYS!! THANK YOU RELAPSE !!
this was a nice ride. thanks for teasing more new stuff!
Just preordered on Bandcamp less than twenty seconds ago. Can't wait until the release date.
The last 5 minutes is dope.
I love GT...haven't heard new stuff in a long time
They should tour with Maserati. Totally getting a Maserati vibe from this!
Why tour with a band that sounds like you?
@@DerwoodEllington They'd sit well on a bill together.
Yep that would be perfect
Cool 💯💯💯💯💯💯✌️😎
This is fucking great!!!!! I was going to see Ghenghis Tron in Philadelphia in maybe 2005-6 ? Their van broke down and there was no show. I know it was in the winter and I believe that played a part. I forgot about this band for awhile and I'm really fucking glad I found this today. Come to Pittsburgh when shows can go on again please!
music is healing.
Yeah, agreed. I like what I hear,but i admittedly hoped for some of the intensity from board up the house. I understand it is a different beast on its own rights and I'm sure I'm gonna dig this album for the sound and for what it represent. Can't wait to listen to the whole thing.
without mookie i think that wont happen. that version is gone sadly
@@BEAT.SWEATS yeah I guess so. BUT, that's not to say the new album won't be solid😁🤘
8:05 getting some major NEU! vibes. Like their song Hallogallo. Very cool.
Great it's sound like NEU
Holy crap. Epic. I was expecting it and then I was disappointed. Then it blew my mind.
This is so fucking good.
I cant stop listening to this. Tony Dicer I am a confirmed fanboy.
I really dig this! It's been so long since BUTH.
It's kinda shoegazey, not what I'd expected, but yeah, I really dig this
Love it cant wait to buy
OH Naaaaaaaaaaah
😂😭
Interesting.
More a fan of their older stuff.Dead Mountain Mouth was an amazing album. Never heard anything like it before or since
Honestly it's not really something compare though. It's been over a decade. You can't really expect a band to come back a decade later and sound exactly how they used to. Their inspiration just grew over time and that's exactly how this song sounds. I definitely know from experience how the music I made 10 years ago is way different than anything I come up with now. Dead Mountain Mouth will always be my favorite but I'm super excited about this one. Those synths were incredible.
@@MageGills Boring! and im a sucker for synths
@@A.i.Riverz Similar feelings here. I understand the concept but musically it doesnt fit what they say they were aiming for. Instead of riding high on old "fame", how about a different project? Hate it when artists try to bring back dead corpses.
its because mookie singerman is no longer in the band, he clearly was the one who added that feeling. its never gonna be the same. i still love it regardless tho.
@@MageGills It kind seems as though you're making excuses for their sound. Some of us will love it some of us will not. I really enjoy the old stuff and am pretty ambivalent about the new. Fingers crossed they work on something with a more extreme vibe to it as this doesn't really scratch the itch.
its great but i cant help but wonder how amazing an album with mookie wouldhave been. that man was genghis tron imo.
The best
Holy shit that was so sick
people who are mad about this band sounding different now are weak
There's a difference between not enjoying something because it isn't your taste which is entirely okay and being mad most of the things I'm reading are people simply not immediately being taken with the new sound. If anything you are weak and weak-minded for not understanding that there can be a difference of opinions without anger involved
It wasn't what I was expecting but ending up being what I needed.
I know right its been a long time since ButH... People grow and evolve.. It would have been boring for them to record another ButH.
I'm a huge fan of old Genghis Tron and will be one of the disappointed fans. Where are all the musical spices that made Genghis Tron so great back in the time? It's cool as an electro kraut track but this scene is so much over filled with so much sounding like these track that it got no particular savior, no kind of artistic signatures. If it was'nt from GT, i guess this track would simply be lost in the Internet profusion. Vibes here are cools but intensity can't compete with tracks from Board Up The House.
Somehow you have to disassociate those albums. I was listening to BUTH last week and switched over to Dream Weapon this week. It took me a little while to appreciate the differences. Now I'm hypnotized by Dream Weapon. The first few times I listened to Dream Weapon I thought it was boring as shit...... But that's what kept me coming back to it. It has a hypnotic quality to it
I have to disaggree. For me, its similar to what happened to "SWANS". Listen to their first few albums, especially "Filth". And then listen to "White Light From The Mouth Of Infinity", which is far more better to me, because it has different and distinctive songs that don't sond all the same and melodies you can somewhat remember. It's still dark and it's still SWANS, but it has more musical output to offer to me. SWANS retired in 1998 only to return in 2010, and their album "The Seer" is dark and hard as fuck (not fast, they're not speed metal, they are rather slow. but that makes them even harder and darker), and another musical exploration. Also, their female vocalist didn't return.
But the new direction is even bettern than the "White Light" era.
What I wanted to say is that new takes in music are always good (The cult of luna album with Julie Christmas comes to my mind, but also Fleetwood Mac), even if one doesn't like them. Because if you like them, that's great, and if not, it can't be changed but it makes you adore the previous sound even more. And new ideas and different explorations are better than a band that releases the same album every few years (a bit like AC/DC)
@@leonardsimonis2376 I get what you mean but sorry, I can dig in this album, I tried my best by listening it again and again but nope, nothing happens for me. I'm glad for GT if DW get its fans but sure I won't be one of them
It's on trend, broceph! Why make art when you can make money, buhDURRRRRRRRR?
This doesn't seem like something from Relapse but I dig it
Agree. Doesn't sound like the Genghis Tron I know
Relapse have a lot of different stuff in their catalog.
Either does Torché 🤷🤑
Obviously, you've never heard of Zombi.
🙂
5:12 :)
WOW! This is another one from this band that is awesome.... but I tried their older stuff and it was too abrasive for me. This one and dream weapon really hit me! I think I might just like this album from them. Strange thing, that.
I'm also a newer fan, been listening to Board Up the House since I first discovered them through Dream Weapon and I'm almost sure I prefer this direction because their newer sound embraces psychedelia in favour of the Extreme Metal elements that were so prominent in their other albums. Board Up the House is still a great album tho.
Glad you like this. These fellas definitely know how to write a song
@@thomashendonandcompany The album is an 11/10 experience, my only regret is that I spoiled too much of it through the singles. Hope these fellas continue releasing music.
Their old stuff was still so good, I remember the day I downloaded laser bitch on kazaa lols. But yeah this is a whole new direction, don’t blame you for liking it better at all.
did they do a split with MASERATI
what is this? a 10 min nintendo softcore opus? Give me more.
this rules
Wait they're back?!
The krautrock influence is strong in this new stuff. I like it but it doesn't move me like their old material did. I guess Board Up The House will forever stay their Magnum Opus.
This a whole New TRON
Great song, but terrible placement of ads. Damn. Just ruins the flow.
I don't mind the replacement of programmed drums with Nick Yacyshyn as the dude is basically a living drum machine anways, but why such a pedestrian singer? It's the one thing that really bothers me about this line-up as a spiritual successor to the original Genghis Tron crew. These toothless vocal performances just do not reflect the essence of GT at all.
toothless is such a good description. what a turn off. my hopes for the album are pretty low at this point. two songs that i wouldn't give more than a listen if it didn't have the name genghis tron next to it.
i respect and appreciate the need for bands to branch out and build on their known identity, but why continue with the Genghis Tron moniker if you reboot after such a long break with a couple new members and a completely different philosophy? why not just start a new band and use the Genghis Tron history to promote it? i don't dislike the music but i also cannot relate this to what Genghis Tron was. i'm disappointed, but not surprised.
Man.... Wha Happun..... I was so excited. 😪
охуенно
People pooping on this refuse to acknowledge evolution. When Board Up The House was released, they were totally different people. That was thirteen years ago. You just expect them to come back and make another BUTH? Come on. People evolve, people grow, so do their tastes and interests and what art they wanna make. There’s plenty of bands out there still doing the same crap from fifteen years ago, go listen to that if that’s what you prefer. Personally, I’m here for the ride.
lol its just people bro...don't take them too seriously...i just hope this album doesn't bring them suffering or something lolol enjoy
Maserati-ish, the first 3mins that is
Definitely
for sure and it's a good thing ! :D
Kinda miss the old sound
I too
I know, me too . I'm going to give this a chance but so far I'm having some difficulty with this one
then listen to their old music
I feel the same way. But this new stuff is still great. I'm just forcing myself to accept this is basically a new band.
Then there's me who couldn't be happier with the new sound lol
This album is going to be such a disappointment but hopefully it will still be fun to listen to. At least we'll always have their old stuff and I'm very excited about the prospect of more Genghis Tron nevertheless!
Bears Beets Battlestar Galactica
hm, well that was bad... eh you guys had a good run lol
I never understood why a band would acrew new members and change their sound so drastically and still maintain the same name. this sounds like an entirely different project, seems like they're just going for a whole new demographic.
I agree that it’s a pretty drastic change but it still feels like Genghis Tron to me. This track sounds nothing like anything I would typically listen to but I can’t stop listening to it. Stoked to hear the rest of the album.
1000% whole heartily agree
If there's no screaming in this....
there's screaming in this song though
Genghis yawn
Boriiiiiing....Zzzz...zzz...zz
..
you are pretty predictable too mate! lol go listen to their old albums...that's not boring
