Garm Sideproject I just discovered...

[Barking Pumpkin]

Someone told me yesterday about a Garm sideproject called 'Head Control System.' As opposed to sounding anything like his other projects, it's more like Alternative Modern Rock or something. It's a project between Daniel Cardoso (don't know him) and Garm. Anyway.......it's at least interesting that Garm has a myspace. (http://www.myspace.com/g_force)

You can hear samples and stuff here:

Garm has myspace? heh, I find that funny for some reason. Yeah i'll definitely be checking this out, Kris seems to have some kind of musical midas touch with pretty much every genre he's experimented in.

Heh, he's a Zappa fan, for some reason that doesn't surprise me

Interesting stuff, thanks for the link

This was called SinDRomE for monthes until a few days ago.

I was also super suprised to learn that Garm is only 29, which would mean he was seventeen when Ulver started. Easily the most mature person in the Norwegian Black Metal scene, I guess.

Cornelius from Solefald was only 16 or 17 when Solefald began! Satyr started Satyricon when he was around that age also!

I was like 13 when I was in my first band. 16 when I was in my first good band.

Interesting with Solefald also. I know a lot of people, in the Norwegian scene especially, started very young. But Ulver's (and Solefald's I guess) music has a maturity beyond a good deal of the other bands, so I kind of just assumed that Garm was older than them.

Ouch, "someone" eh?

 

[Barking Pumpkin]

Sorry.

When's this disc offically coming out?

 

[karpsmom]

Early 2006 is all they ever say

 

[The_Accolade]

wow... those tunes are pretty good!

Wasn't one of the Enslaved guys 13 when they 'started' the band (before any releases)? I think Daniel Gildenlöw was very young as well when he 'started' Pain of Salvation, but didn't release the demo until very much later.

And yeah, I heard the first tunes by Head Control System (or Sindrome as it was back then) some time in the summer, and a few months ago I checked their myspace again to notice they had changed their name and would release the album soon. Along with the new Amorphis it's gonna be my first purchases of 2006.

I remember someone suggested that the reason why there was so much good musical talent coming from europe was because they have better music programs in their schools than in the US.
