Listeners set the price of the new album.
UK-based producer Jon Gooch started Spor in 2006; a drum & bass project that helped shape electronic’s harder, more aggressive sound. After a long hiatus, Spor is resurrected. Caligo, Gooch’s new project under Spor, is as sinister and beautiful as you’d expect.
Caligo opens with “Your Murmuring Chasms”, an echoey, hazy introduction, before ‘Empire’ – a heavy, guitar-laden cut – sets the pace for the rest album with aggressive drums and gritty vocals. “After The Flood” slices through the darkness; a single, standout, ethereal voice. The album ends with “Hole Where Your House Was”; the menace lingers.
