Lasse Marhaug - Document

Review by Geoff Varosky

Document, the latest album by Lasse Marhaug, is a sonic journey that delivers a powerful and immersive experience. The Norwegian experimental musician and producer has created an album that is both challenging and rewarding, combining elements of noise, drone, and ambient music to create a unique and engaging sound.

From the opening track, "Carnivore," Marhaug sets the tone with a dense and chaotic wall of sound that gradually builds in intensity. The album's second track, "Intruder," is a more subdued affair, with subtle drones and textures gradually emerging from the mix.

As the album progresses, Marhaug continues to explore different sonic landscapes, from the haunting "Drowning" to the frenzied "The Great Silence." Throughout it all, he demonstrates a mastery of sound design and production, creating a sonic world that is both immersive and disorienting.

Summary by Geoff Varosky

While Document may not be for everyone, those who are willing to dive into Marhaug's sonic world will be rewarded with a rich and rewarding listening experience. This is an album that demands attention and rewards careful listening, and it is sure to appeal to fans of experimental and avant-garde music.
