Snarling

by Givan Lötz

Lost Tribe Sound thumbnail
Lost Tribe Sound So much happening during the course of Snarling, and this is just the abridged version of a 4 album body of work. Floats between this sort of dreamy rock ballad style reminiscent of the late 80's/early 90's. Every now and again tipping its hat to more grunge era arrangements. Givan's vocals are dark but so welcoming at the same time. Some of the vocal delivery and instrumentation remind me of Benoit Pioulard and Timber Timbre. It's unique, intelligent, and interesting to say the least.

about

SNARLING comes from South African artist, Givan Lötz, as a redux version of a 4 album series of slow quietly haunting songs written and distilled over a period of 4 years. Lötz’ invented sonic realm is at once immersive and submerged. It is a sub-aquatic planet of shifting veils and delayed frequencies, of murmurs and caverns and sudden twists of rupturing light. Its pace is that which occurs in media thicker than air, the time zone permanently pitched at dusk. As we travel through this twilight space of unpredictable half-light, Lötz’ narrative arc circles the problems of love – obsession, loneliness, desire, paranoia, tragedy, sensuality and melancholia all intermingle in this multi-tiered, meditative miscellany. Here are sprawling canvases of electronica, now thumping now floating, here are crunching, ominous electric guitars, thrumming organs, wild splashes of sound.

about

Givan Lötz Johannesburg, South Africa

I am an artist because I am uncertain. The moments of obsession involved in this process of art-making aspire to achieve a mood of catharsis.
