Genn - Reverberations

Their first new music since their awesome debut LP, unum, in 2023, this track ushers in a brand-new chapter for the band, as they team up with Savages / Jehnny Beth producer, Johnny Hostile.

The collaboration began with a mutual sense of respect and admiration, and immediately paid dividends with Hostile deftly accentuating the band’s idiosyncratic sound. A sound that shifts between calcified categories (touching upon alternative rock, post-punk and psychedelia) and has been celebrated for its negotiation of both technology and tradition. Hostile explains his feelings towards to working on the track: “It’s got that rush I love in music - chaotic, beautiful, and impossible to resist, working on it felt like chasing pure energy, capturing something wild but true.”

Reverberations provides a spectral - almost operatic - performance from vocalist, Leona Farrugia, with lyrics glitching within a swirling pool of instrumentation. Beauty and melancholy is dialled up in an equally potent measure, once again outlining ĠENN as an act who care deeply about music’s ability to direct in a cinematic manner.
