IX: International Gird_09 Day




090909 is upon us, and with it Gird_09's IX. It's been quite some time since a release of this kind, going back to Jenna Flechette in 2003 (though I did release four tracks via myspace in 2006-07). It's been fifteen years since I took the name Gird_09, so this is a good occasion for a new release.

IX consists of eight tracks, and four images for your pleasure.
The genre is some kind of industrial ambient, that I have chosen to call horror ambient. The tracks are inspired by horror films and books, and tell a loose tale, but are not an attempt to make a soundtrack as such.

01 Chains
02 Through the Curtains
03 the Chase
04 Corvix
05 Waiting
06 Cold Storage
07 Wearing the Mask
08 Gird_09 is Dead

IX will also be released in 19 copies on cd-r, but due to the evil h1n1 virus, the publication has been postponed for a couple of weeks. Those of you who are set to receive a copy can enjoy the mpfree version for now, and look forward to getting the physical version soon. It is my belief that the packaging will be worth the wait.

As always, there is no copyright and you can listen, manipulate and spread any way you want. Enjoy.
