TERMINAL is the brainchild of Oslo-based musicians Pål Salvesen and Jake Leyland (Beggar, Francis Root). Melding traditional metal textures with enigmatic samples and unusual instrumentation, TERMINAL weaves the many threads of heavy music into an obscure sonic tapestry. From straight-up Godflesh worship to doomy post-punk, TERMINAL’s exploration of peripheral musical terrain is unimpeded by genres, making their out-of-the-blue debut LP R.A.T.S a shapeshifting aural curiosity entirely their own. Musically speaking, TERMINAL leaves no stone unturned. Inflected with dub-ridden bass lines, expansive industrial percussion, brutal down-tuned riffing and cosmic synthesizers, the music is as reminiscent of that of Dead Can Dance as it is of Amen Ra’s. Guttural screams and spoken monologues are interwoven with the layered and soaring harmonies of guest vocalists Pia Isaksen (SuperLynx, PiaIsa, LovePlanet, Nephila) and Agnete Kirkevaag (Madder Mortem) to dramatic effect, and the dark inner world of TERMINAL’s music is brilliantly brought to life in the uneasy vision of Latvian artist Juliana Soboleva’s cover work.
